Hitler's Women

Hitler's Women was a highly visual and imagistic piece of theatre which explored the relationship between women and Fascism, focusing on the lives of, among others, Eva Braun - Hitler's mistress - and the upper-class English woman, Unity Mitford. The play highlighted the involvement of women in the rise and fall of the Third Reich - their secrets, their lies, their guilt, their resistance, their fanaticism, their hope and their ultimate betrayal. Through the eyes of these women, a new view of National Socialism was understood, one which challenged some of the myths and perceptions surrounding Hitler's Germany.

It's a fact that women love real men. It's their instinct that tells them that they should seek the protection of a real hero.
