New adaptation of Dostoyevsky's short story, THE DREAM OF A RIDICULOUS MAN is coming to the Marylebone Theatre for a limited run next spring.
On an uneventful Wednesday in a drab Borough of East London, an ordinary man has a startling revelation: life is an unhappy accident in a meaningless universe.
He gets himself a gun.
But before he can use it, he dreams of an innocent, alternative earth, where people live in harmony with nature and each other. Elated, he sets out to tell the world about his dream and share his new vision of a happy planet....
Screen and stage star Greg Hicks performs (Oklahoma! at the Young Vic, Ghosts at the Sam Wanamaker Theatre and Coriolanus at the Old Vic, Snow White and the Huntsman) in a 21st century version of Dostoyevsky’s tragi-comic adventure, adapted for the stage and directed by multiple Olivier Award-winning Laurence Boswell. Exploring climate change, nationalist politicians and the threat of humans on the world around us, THE DREAM OF A RIDICULOUS MAN is a thought-provoking yet hilarious exploration of human nature at London’s award-winning Marylebone Theatre.
