What is currently on at Arcola (V1422226940)

A Hero of Our Time

A Hero of Our TimeT0170068931
Sex, power, love, alienation and violence. A thrilling Russian dissection of the cruel and complicated games played by men, laying intimate thoughts unflinchingly bare. You are invited into the mind of a soldier, where bars and ballrooms become battlefields. A show that blurs the line between theatrical and non-theatrical spaces, between comedy and tragedy, between the nineteenth century and our time.
Author Mikhail Lermontov
