=20 Tough Act (PGR) Rāmere 3 Whiringa-ā-nuku 2008 – Rāmere 3 Whiringa-ā-nuku 2008 8:30 pm The acting trainees brace themselves for a few home truths as they get their mid – year assessments. One student's future at drama school hangs in the balance. The Devil’s Architect Rāhina 6 Whiringa-ā-nuku 2008 – Rāapa 8 Whiringa-ā-nuku 2008 Written by Dolly Reisman. Directed by Ken Keys. A powerful study of the nature of evil and the seductiveness, as Albert Speer, Hitler's architect and "right – hand man", seeks personal redemption. The Devil’s Architect is an intimate psychological insight into the mind of Albert Speer, Hitlers’ Architect and Armaments Minister. Set during Speers’ 20 years in Spandau Prison after the fall of the Third Reich, Speer is visited by a Calvinist Priest, a Woman and his Conscience. In order to find peace Speer must come clean about his part in the Fuhrers’ grand plans and the forced labour camps, which placed the doomed lives of 800,000 workers in his hands. Based largely on the amazing biographical study by Gitta Sereney, Speer; His Battle with Truth, The Devil’s Architect is an intimate and intense look ‘inside’ Speers’ head and conveys his strength, torment and catharsis. Cost: $20/10 (Groups 5+ $15/8).
