The Police

by Slawomir Mrozeck
in a new adaptation by Anders Lustgarten

Theatre of the Absurd by one of Poland’s best-loved playwrights.  Set within the cell of a secret prison, hapless police officers pit their wits against the intellectual superiority of the last political prisoner. This fantastical nightmare by Slawomir Mrozek provides a glimpse of tomorrow’s world as perfectly logical events spiral into absurdity.

“Designer Tim Sykes gives the evening a stylish 1950s spin… a well thought out evening that really pays attention to detail… A case of really bringing the house down. Promising stuff.”    - The Guardian
