d'après Bertolt Brecht
Editée et mise en scène par David Furlong
Brecht, le dramaturge allemand le plus populaire, transpose les mécanismes de l’ascension d’Hitler dans le Chicago des années 1930 avec le trust du chou-fleur en crise. D’Al Capone à Méloni, du fascisme à la pègre, les procédés sont les mêmes : intimidation, chantage, détournement d’argent, menace, meurtre, jusqu'au cours grotesque de diction pour mieux haranguer les foules.
"Le ventre est encore fécond" - Brecht
Plus de soixante ans après la mort du dramaturge, Arturo Ui traverse l’Histoire et parle toujours au présent. Notre troupe s’en empare avec insolence et des personnages tellement haut en couleurs qu’ils touchent à tous les extrêmes ! Ceux de la fiction déjantée, bien sur…
Par la troupe des Nouveaux Barbares (2024) et Notre Racine (2025)
Avec Baptiste Boninségna, Gladys De Guerines, Jeanne Delévaque, Laurent Doucet, Pierre Dubs, Delphine Giret, Camille Lehujeur, Marion Neron, Marion Pelletant, Constance Rouge
The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui
IN FRENCH after Bertolt Brecht
Edited and directed by David Furlong
Brecht, the most popular German playwright, transposes the mechanisms of Hitler’s rise to power into 1930s Chicago, with a cauliflower trust in crisis. From Al Capone to Meloni, from fascism to organized crime, the methods are the same: intimidation, blackmail, embezzlement, threats, murder—right up to the grotesque diction lessons designed to better harangue the crowds.
“The womb is still fertile” - Brecht
More than sixty years after the playwright’s death, Arturo Ui continues to move through history and still speaks to the present day. Our company takes it on with irreverence, and with characters so vividly drawn that they push every limit—those of wild, off-the-wall fiction, of course…
By the company behind Les Nouveaux Barbares (2024) and Notre Racine (2025).
With Baptiste Boninségna, Gladys De Guerines, Jeanne Delévaque, Laurent Doucet, Pierre Dubs, Delphine Giret, Camille Lehujeur, Marion Neron, Marion Pelletant, Constance Rouge
