Pip Utton - Adolf
In Adolf, Pip Utton breathes new life into the Führer and whips up the audience. The performance begins in Hitler's bunker in 1945, where he lashes out furiously at his generals; they have lost his war. In his paranoid tirade, he reveals the mechanisms behind fascism.
In Adolf, Pip Utton breathes new life into the Führer and whips up the audience. The performance begins in Hitler's bunker in 1945, where he lashes out furiously at his generals, they have lost his war. In his paranoid tirade, he reveals the mechanisms behind fascism. But then the scene shifts abruptly and we find ourselves in an everyday pub, here and now. A man rants about the world and the country: liberal asylum laws, blacks on the streets, Muslims, Jews, Palestinians. An ordinary man, just like you and me?
A unique performer
Pip Utton first entered the Dutch theatres in 2006 and has since proved his ability to transform effortlessly. From Adolf Hitler to the hunchback of Notre-Dame and from Winston Churchill to even Margaret Thatcher, Utton dives fully into his characters. Meet a unique performer, a masterful theatre-maker, and witness the final hours of an irresistible idealist with remarkable logic.
