The Trial
THIS EVENT ENDED ON THE 22ND AUGUST 2015
Nearby

Olivier Award winner Rory Kinnear stars as Josef K, an ordinary man put on trial by a mysterious agency for unidentified crimes, in Nick Gill's adaptation of Franz Kafka's The Trial. Richard Jones directs this nightmarish descent into psychological hell. Returning to the stage for the first time since his Olivier-winning Iago at the National, the name of Kinnear on the bill is sure to make this another sell-out success for the Young Vic.
About The Young Vic
Knocked together out of breeze blocks for a minimal budget in 1970, Lawrence Olivier's experimental theatre was intended to last for five years, and provide an inspiration for the new generation of performers. But this was an experiment that worked and, years later, the Young Vic remains south London's premier venue for the contemporary, the shocking, the controversial, and the bizarre.
