Birth Place: GERMANY
Presented as a tribute to German playwright Rolf Hochhuth who died in May, Death of a Hunter is the fourth play by Rolf Hochhuth presented at the Finborough Theatre, following Soldiers, The Representative and Summer 14: A Dance of Death. The Finborough production opened on Hochhuth's 87th birthday.
Death of a Hunter sees Ernest Hemingway fighting his demons at once in the last harrowing hour of his life. Unable to write like he used to, he questions the ghosts of his past and examines the path that's lead him to that point. Finborough Theatre sees the English language premiere of Rolf Hochhuth's piece in a new adaptation by Peter Thiers (and in a translation by Peter Sutton).
The UK and English language premiere of Death of a Hunter opens at the Finborough Theatre on Sunday, 1 April 2018 for nine Sunday and Monday evenings and Tuesday matinees including a performance in German on Tuesday, 10 April 2018 (Press Night: Monday, 2 April 2018 at 7.30pm).

„Wir sind wahrend der Proben ziemlich beste Freunde geworden", schwarmt Martin Woelffer von der Zusammenarbeit mit seinem Ensemble zum gleichnamigen Stuck, „deswegen freut es mich besonders, dass die Vorauffuhrungen so gut angekommen sind. Wir scheinen einen Nerv getroffen zu haben. Die Hauptdarsteller Mike Adler und Erdal Yildiz spielen sich schnell in die Herzen der Zuschauer und sind dabei immer glaubwurdig. Dabei gestalten sie die Rollen des querschnittsgelahmten Philippe und seines Pflegers Driss ganz anders als die beiden Figuren, die uber 9 Millionen Deutsche aus dem Kino kennen. Das uberrascht und begeistert unsere Zuschauer."
