Details

Dostoyevsky's most famous novel centres on Raskolnikov, an impoverished student who commits a gruesome murder and is forced to come to terms with his crime through the living nightmare of his frantic search for redemption.Underground recreates the feverish atmosphere of Dostoyevsky's world by leading the audience through the corridors, stairwells, basements and backrooms of the labyrinthine Theatre Royal. With the freedom to follow a character or narrative thread, or to wander through the interconnecting maze of spaces, where scenes, fragments, film images and chance encounters merge, transform and dissolve, Underground is like a constantly shifting hallucinatory dream. Please note: entrance via stage door, Bond Street, audience will be admitted at pre-arranged time slots between 6.30pm - 9.20pm. Advanced booking essential. Unsuitable for children under the age of 15
