- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 19 Aug, 2026 at 07:30 pm – Wed, 19 Aug, 2026 at 10:00 pm (+01:00)
- **Event Description**: A play by Dale Wasserman
Adapted from the novel by Ken Kesey

This modern classic remains one of the most unsettling parables of institutional control.

Randle P. McMurphy arrives in a psychiatric ward expecting an easy alternative to prison. What he finds instead is a regime of quiet, smiling coercion — ruled by the chillingly composed Nurse Ratched.

What follows is a battle of wills: one man’s insistence on laughter, freedom and humanity against a system that prizes obedience above all else. It is sometimes darkly funny, sometimes desperately moving, always uncomfortably recognisable.

A story about the price of being fully alive — and the cost of allowing others to live half-asleep.

Produced by the Grove’s in-house company, the team behind Talking Heads, The Shawshank Redemption, The Mirror Crack’d, and others.
