The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

by Bertolt Brecht, with Bill Wallis as Arturo Ui

Brecht's tragicomic political polemic warning the world of 1938 against the criminality of Hitler by portraying him as, literally, a cheap hoodlum from Brooklyn who exploits the cauliflower trade's depression by setting up protection rackets which ultimately gain him total power in Chicago and Cicero.
