ACTOR Robyn Nevin agreed that “Brunhilde” suggested an Amazonian kind of image, but the character she’s about to perform in Canberra was in fact small and quite forgettable in appearance.
Nevin is talking of Brunhilde Pomsel, Joseph Goebbels’ secretary and the subject she portrays in Christopher Hampton’s play, “A German Life”, so potentially nerve-touching that it rates a warning from the theatre that it contains graphic historical footage distressing for some patrons.
Directed by Neil Armfield, the one-hander comes to Canberra after a sell-out season at the Adelaide Festival.
