Co-produced with
Delirium
by Theatre O and Enda Walsh
adaptation of The Brothers Karamazov
October 26-November 13
In this raucous re-visioning of Dostoyevsky’s The Brothers Karamazov, celebrated Irish playwright Enda Walsh (the musical “Once”) distills this great novel to its brutal essence. Through an explosion of light, sound and puppetry, this theatrical outburst of toxic masculinity grabs audiences by the throat. Three brothers are locked in an eternal family struggle with their abusive patriarch culminating in an epic theological battle. Director Brenna Geffers (Machinal, The Hairy Ape) stages this bold Philadelphia premiere. For mature audiences.
All performances take place at the Latvian Society Theater - 531 N. 7th St., Philadelphia
