Crime and Punishment
When: Tuesday, 4 November from 19:30 - 21:40
Genres: Tragedy, Classic, Thriller
A taut new adaptation of Dostoyevsky's classic tale of murder, guilt and redemption by Joanna O'Connor, brought to Barons Court by slick touring company Myriad.
Crime and Punishment is one of the most gripping and claustrophobic works of Fyodor Dostoyevsky, a writer with an uncanny ability to transcribe the mental contortions and shifting uncertainties of characters on the edge of madness. (He was himself an epileptic in a time when the condition was little understood, and a chronic gambler.) Any successful stage production must convey the darkness and fear inside the mind of the young murderer Raskolnikov.
Myriad have a great reputation and this should be well acted and paced. Not a laugh a minute but a thoroughly transporting night of high drama.
