Ui (oo-ey)
EXTENDED! Now thru October 8!

"Imaginative and brave, pushing the concept of power and accountability to a new level on the eve of a contentious election. Its designed to make the audience think about what a leader should be by showing us what it should not be." -The Providence Journal

"With masterful execution, Wilbury Group manages to create a fascinating and frightening world in which we can really believe these three disparate works might coexists...Attempting to take all of that and make it somehow work together and make sense as a whole is a tough task, but Wilbury Group succeeds brilliantly. It's a lot of fun and more than a little nuts, but it is entertaining and surprising from beginning to end." -Broadway World

"The Wilbury Theatre Group has earned a well-deserved reputation for producing exciting and especially innovative stage experiences, and this season's opener is indisputably its most daring and discerning to date...This engrossing production, however offbeat, makes it impossible to turn away and forces us to pay closer attention." -Edge Providence

What's old is new again in this fresh (and fascist) mash-up inspired by two of the greatest dramatists of all time. Brecht's Arturo Ui is the funny, sharp and thrilling take on the rise of Hitler shot through with Brechts razor-sharp wit. Using a wide range of parody and pastiche  from Al Capone to Shakespeares Richard III and Goethes Faust  Ui creates a hilariously comic and darkly condemnatory tale of the persistence of fascism and the inevitable rise of those unlikely leaders who rise to power by preying on the fear of the masses.
