Adapted by Stephen Berkoff from the novella by Franz Kafka
Waking to find himself transformed into a dung beetle, Gregor must now seriously consider his options. One of the most resonantly strange stories ever brought to the stage, this highly acclaimed adaptation by Berkoff plunges into the extremity of Kafka's dark humour and reveals a tremulous human heart.
"Metamorphosis" casts its beady eyes over the norms of society, illustrating the alienation of one painfully normal individual with deft surrealism. Theatrical Niche Ltd tour this wonderful monstrosity, using signature touches of Physical Theatre and grotesque ensemble Puppetry. Awe-inspiring visuals in amongst a darkly funny and deeply disturbing modern masterpiece promise a jaw-dropping, belly-ache of an experience.
