Splendid Productions: Woyzeck

Performance

Roll up! Roll up! Madness, murder, passion and peas in Splendid’s exhilarating adaptation of Georg Büchner’s gothic classic.

Dirt poor, with his woman, Marie and a child to support, lowly soldier Franz Woyzeck has agreed to become a medical experiment for the regimental doctor. But is it his diet of peas that leads him into the forest to murder his lover, or the rumours of what Marie has been doing with the peacocking Drum Major?

Splendid Productions bring their unique style of ‘indoor street theatre’ to the Nuffield Theatre with this stripped-back, highly theatrical telling Büchner’s famous unfinished play. With nothing but a trunk-full of junk, three talented performers piece together a fractured story in a fast-paced mix of comedy, tragedy, puppetry, and song.
