Wales Millennium Centre’s poignant and powerful production of Manfred Karge’s Man to Man opens in Cardiff at the Bute Theatre on September 8th – 9th with just 2 performances prior to a nationwide tour including Wilton’s Music Hall in London.
This acclaimed one woman play tells the life story of a woman called Ella Gericke, who lived with her husband Max until one day he died. Then the Nazis arrived…
Based on an incredible true story, we witness Ella’s struggle and determination in a volatile 20th century Germany where she adopts the identity of her dead husband to survive.
Man to Man is a striking and spellbinding modern fairy tale inspired by the traditions of German storytelling. It gives audiences an incredible insight into what life was like in 20th century Germany, including the radical changes of the Nazi’s rise to power, the Cold War and the Berlin Wall coming down.
