What the press said...


"Sheer poetry...One undoubted highlight was the holocaust sequence, etched in such simple, muted and symbolic form as to be almost unbearably moving. A remarkable achievement."
The Stage

"Meticulously researched, Hitler's Women is a sensitive, perceptive and well staged piece, its moments of high drama and tragedy reinforced by recordings of the Nuremberg rallies and of Verdi."
The Guardian

"Two physically exhausting performances that never flag and which make for compulsive viewing. Magnetic theatre that grips from start to finish."
The Western Mail

"The most impressive production from the standpoint of technical brilliance and acting discipline is a play called Hitler's Women. It is a good demonstration of the intellectual rigour of English feminism, which is trying to deal with disturbing paradoxes in women's behaviour. This all woman group takes as its starting point a famous and much reviled statement of Hitler's to the effect "women love real men. It's their instinct that tells them that they should seek the protection of a hero." Instead of mocking this remark, Foursight acknowledges that there is truth in it; and turns its attention to the interplay between female sexuality and authoritarian politics."
