The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui
The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, Part 1
The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui, Part 2
BBC WS - Bertolt Brecht's 'The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui'
Translated by Ralph Mannheim
Adapted by John Foley
Music by Colin Sell
Directed by Marion Nancarrow
Broadcast in two parts August 12 & 19, 2006
Coded from tape at 128/44.1
An allegorical satire written in1941. It describes the rise Hitler & his pals as fictional Chicago mobster Arturo Ui's takeover of the cauliflower racket.
The details of each scene were drawn from history; such as:
The fate of Cicero, Illinois = The Anschluss
The Cauliflower Trust = Prussian Junkers
The warehouse fire = the Reichstag Fire
The Dock Aid Scandal = Die Osthilfeskandal (East aid scandal)
Brecht said of the work:
"Ui is a parable play, written with the aim of destroying a dangerous respect commonly felt for great killers... Plain everyday logic must never let itself be overawed once it goes strolling among the centuries; whatever applies to small situations must be made to apply to big ones too. The petty rogue whom the rulers permit to become a rogue on the grand scale can occupy a special position in roguery, but not in our attitude to history... If the collapse of Hitlerís enterprises is no evidence that he was a half-wit, neither is their scope any guarantee that he was a great man."
Cast includes
Ui (Hitler) - Allan Corduner
Roma (Ruhm) - Clive Rowe
Dogsborough (von Hindenburg) - John Woodvine

In the Jungle of Cities premiered at the Residenz Theater (Residenztheater) in Munich on May 9, 1923. The premiere was interrupted several times by Nazis, hooting, whistling and throwing stink bombs at the actors on the stage.
In the prologue to the play, Brecht informs his audience that:
"You are in Chicago in 1912. You are about to witness an inexplicable wrestling match between two men and observe the downfall of a family that has moved from the prairies to the jungle of the big city. Don't worry your heads about the motives for the fight, concentrate on the stakes. Judge impartially the technique of the contenders, and keep your eyes fixed on the finish."

The Life of Galileo, Part 2 (2007)
The American Premiere of a new translation by leading playwright David Hare. Straight from London's National Theatre. Unrelenting in his search for what he called "simple truth," Galileo shattered beliefs held sacred for two thousand years. Under threat of torture by the Holy Inquisition, his scientific and personal integrity are put to the test as he argues for his very life.
Starring Stacy Keach, Joanne Whalley, Roy Dotrice, Simon Templeman, and Christopher Neame. Directed by Martin Jarvis.
------- LA Theatre Works 'Life of Galileo' Oct.17-21, Radio Recorded
Straight from London's National Theatre to L.A. Theatre Works, Stacy Keach and Julian Sands star in the American Premiere of David Hare's streamlined version of Bertolt Brecht's The Life of Galileo. LATW opens its 2007-08 season with five performances at the Skirball Cultural Center, October 17-21, each recorded to air on LATW's nationally-syndicated weekly radio theater series, "The Play's The Thing."
The Life of Galileo, Brecht's masterpiece about the conflict between reason and faith, will be recorded to air as part of the Relativity science series, created by a major grant from the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. On the first Saturday of each month, "The Play's the Thing" broadcasts a science-themed play as part of this new series.
Also included in the cast, directed by Martin Jarvis, are stage and screen veterans Kenneth Danziger, Jeannie Elias, Jill Gascoine, Christopher Neame, Moira Quirk, Darren Richardson, Alan Shearman, W. Morgan Sheppard, Simon Templeman, Douglas Weston and Matthew Wolf.
"Unrelenting in his search for 'simple truth,' Galileo's astonishing proof that the earth moves around the sun shatters a belief held sacred for two thousand years. But, under threat of torture by the Holy Inquisition, his scientific and personal integrity are put to the test, as he argues for his very life in a passionate debate over science, politics, religion and ethics that resonates to this day," declare press notes, "Brecht's play about the founder of modern science, written on the brink of World War II, questions whether the scientist should be subservient to the State, allowing it to use scientific knowledge for its own questionable purposes."
KPFA Readers' Theatre, technical production by John Whiting. Translation HR Hays. Broadcast March 18, 1963 on KPFA, Berkeley, California.
Bertolt Brecht radio play from 1940. Lucullus, a general, is in underworld and stands trial before members of the lower classes that adorn a frieze.

Schweik in the Second World War
Schweik in the Second World War by Bretolt Brecht
with Music by Hanns Eisler
Adapted and Directed by Clive Bennet & Ian Cotterell
BBC Radio 3 1980s
Written during Brecht's exile in the United States from 1941 to 1947, Schweik in the Second World War transposes Jaroslav Hašek timeless character, the ingenious fool and The Good Soldier Švejk, to the reign of Hitler and the Third Reich's occupation of Poland.
Schweik in the Second World War (Schweyk im Zweiten Weltkrieg) is a play by German dramatist and poet Bertolt Brecht. It was written by Brecht in 1943 while in exile in California, and is a sequel to the 1923 novel The Good Soldier Švejk by Jaroslav Hašek. It is set in Prague and on the Russian Front during World War II. It is a satirical tale of a common man, Schweyk, who is forced into war and manages to survive. He overcomes dangerous situations in Gestapo Headquarters, a military prison, and a Voluntary Labor Service. The ending finds Schweyk lost in a snowstorm near Stalingrad. He meets an equally lost and bewildered Hitler, whose path is blocked by snow, frozen corpses, the Soviet Army, and the German people. Finally, Hitler does a grotesque dance and disappears into the snow.
Jaroslav Hašek The Good Soldier Švejk is one of the 20th century's greatest fictional characters. His book should be compulsory reading for all those who have faith in authority, they will soon be disillusioned. Its also profoundly funny -- hiliarious in fact, an antiwar novel that wanders throughout the realm of the old Austro- Hungarian Empire. Švejk is the ideal Czech dissident, the fat, beer-loving, bumbling, self-proclaimed, certified idiot of a soldier, who circumvents and subverts authority by the simple strategy of fulfiling his orders to the point where it causes trouble.
