The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui
Crime. Corruption. Cauliflower. Bertolt Brecht’s cutthroat satire chronicles gangster Arturo Ui’s bloody ascension to power. Set in Chicago amidst a city-wide scandal, The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui gets to the heart of hometown corruption and global fascism. Boundaries are blurred between high and low art, rich and poor crime, broken and fixed systems. In responding to the rise of tyranny in 1940s Germany, Brecht conducts a disturbingly timeless takedown of who runs systems and who lets them.
