On the morning of his 30th birthday, Josef K. is unexpectedly arrested by two unidentified strangers from an unidentified agency for an unspecified crime. Confident of his innocence, despite not knowing the charges, K. sets out to face the justice system with the help of an increasingly bizarre cast of characters. But with the web tightening around him, K. struggles to make sense of what is happening as he stumbles towards his seemingly inevitable fate.
Franz Kafka was a short story writer and novelist, widely regarded as one of the major figures of 20th-Century literature. Written between 1914 and 1915, his unfinished novel The Trial was published posthumously in 1925 and is often seen as a criticism of inhuman bureaucracy and a society in lack of civil rights. Celebrated British actor/director Steven Berkoff’s stage adaptation first premiered in London in 1970.
