The King's Speech

In the organizer's words:

The fact that he is only number two in the "family firm" doesn't bother Bertie, actually Prince Albert of York, as his older brother David is much more charismatic and winning. Bertie, on the other hand, has been battling his severe stammer since childhood.

However, as the company is the royal family of England and the year is 1936, things are more complicated. When his brother abdicates under great pressure, Bertie has to take over and becomes George VI. In order to prepare himself for his public appearances in increasingly gloomy political times, he puts himself in the hands of the unconventional speech therapist Lionel Logue, who cares little for royal etiquette. Can he help the unwilling king to overcome his stammer and settle into his unwanted new role?

The Hamburg Players will be showing the stage adaptation of the Oscar-winning film by screenwriter David Seidler in the English-language original at the beginning of November.
