MENGELE - 27th & 29th January, 1st, 6th and 7th February - 7:30pm.

1979, on a beach in Brazil, a drowning man faces his past.

Josef Mengele, the notorious doctor of Auschwitz, takes his routine morning swim but out in deep water has a seizure and is washed ashore. Here he is confronted by a local woman who he assumes has saved him. Flattered, entranced and provoked by this enigmatic presence, he seeks to justify his life... only succeeding in damning himself.

Presented in cinematic style, this production is atmospheric, evocative and poignant in its contemporary reference exposing a sociopathic narcissist. A 5* acclaimed run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival resulted in 'Mengele' being selected as a ‘Fringe Encore Winner’ to play an off-Broadway season in New York.
