Description
A new version of highly acclaimed adaptation of Vladimir Nabokov's novel.
In this darkly comical portrayal of one man’s helplessness in the face of others’ indifference, Cincinnatus – a commonplace resident of a fictional town – is arrested and sentenced to death for an ill-defined crime. Locked in his cell, he exhorts the authorities to let him know, at least, the date of his beheading … only to be denied even that ‘consolation’. Meanwhile, as he awaits execution, the beleaguered prisoner is visited by a host of characters, who seem completely incapable of understanding (or, at any rate, empathising with!) the gravity of his predicament. Nabokov’s 1936 novel merges a disquieting sense of unease with sly, satirical humour – a combination captured wonderfully in what is a deliciously offbeat adaptation.
“…if you’re looking for an enjoyable and interesting piece of theatre, go and see ‘Invitation to a Beheading’.” (Time Out)
Venue
The Barons Court Theatre, 28A Comeragh Rd, W14 9HR London
