Lucie Pohl: Hi, Hitler

Lucie Pohl: Hi, Hitler

At The Complex Theater Sat. & Sun. December 13-14 at 8pm.

Fresh off the heels of a smash hit, sold out Edinburgh Fringe debut, a debut on London's West End and a sold-out OFF-Broadway preview run at 59E59 Theaters and a sold out OFF-OFF Broadway run at IRT Theater, Lucie Pohl brings her 5 star solo show Hi, Hitler to Los Angeles for two nights only.
Meet a German-Jew, who grows up in a wild family of artists, is fascinated by der Fuhrer from age four and uprooted from Hamburg to NYC at eight. As Bertolt Brecht's real-life niece, Lucie yearns for normalcy, but being different seems to run in her bloodline and escaping her inherited high-drama-destiny might just be impossible. A pinch of Hitler, a cup of hip hop and a dash of Hasselhoff.

TIMES: 8pm
LENGTH OF SHOW: 60 Minutes
PRICE: $20.00
At The Complex Theater: 6476 Santa Monica Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90038
