[Home]The Resistable Rise of Arturo Ui

HomePage | Recent Changes | Preferences

A play by the German dramatist Bertolt Brecht. It chronicles the rise of Arturo Ui, a Chicago mobster, and his attempts to control the cauliflower racket by ruthlessly disposing of the opposition. The play is consciously highly satirical of Adolf Hitler in Nazi Germany, whose rise is parallel to that of Ui.
