Eichmann, Arendt and You

We are re-enacting the trial of Adolf Eichmann. In three rooms, you, as the audience, are led through a monstrous tragedy that tells what a single human being can accomplish. “The banality of evil,” an acknowledgment of the darkness of man.

The performance begins in the foyer, where you meet a completely ordinary man. He does ordinary things like hanging up your jacket, serving coffee, all while talking about his family, his work and his interests. A meeting between people. He is your confidant and accompanies you throughout the process. It turns out later, it is he who turns into Adolf Eichmann.
