Hated Nightfall archiveSeventy years after the murder of the Russian Imperial family by revolutionaries, their remains were discovered. Alongside them lay two as yet unidentified human beings. Hated Nightfall takes a strange, tender and surreal journey into the mind of a serial killer in the Age of Extremes - the 20th century in all its cruel complexity. Barker, a key playwright in the development of contemporary theatre, unleashes a powerful, poetic and emotional dramatic vision, as the children's charismatic tutor, Dancer, is catapulted to power. The aspiring saint swings between cruelty and pity, murdering with comic abandon the exponents of party discipline who stand between him and his dream. The snake of the Revolution swallows its own tail. Dancer is one of Barker's most extraordinary stage creations.
