What to expect
A Talmudic Vaudeville inspired by Kafka's The Trial.
Based on Franz Kafka With music from Bach and Schumann to Yiddish vaudeville Directed by Barrie Kosky / Musical Director Adam Benzwi
"Someone must have been telling lies about Josef K., he knew he had done nothing wrong but, one morning, he was arrested"... so begins Franz Kafka's famous text The Trial; a comic yet terrifying tale of Josef K's blind tumble through totalitarian bureaucracy and an absurd, labyrinthine system of laws that are nearly impossible to navigate.
Barrie Kosky is an Adelaide Festival favourite; his spectacular operas Saul, The Magic Flute and The Golden Cockerel sell-out highlights of recent years alongside his last music theatre extravaganza with the Berliner Ensemble, The Threepenny Opera.
