-- ABOUT THE PLAY --
“Everybody wants to change the world. Nobody thinks to change himself.”
Dostoevsky’s Crime and Punishment is crime thriller meets Karl Marx and Jesus Christ. Grounded in the realistic context of a St. Petersburg slum, the anti-hero Raskolnikov commits murder as a sort of experiment. “Have I the right to murder?” he wants to know.
One of the most extraordinary novels of all time gets inside the mind of a starving, destitute student who brutally kills an old woman and pawnbroker, embarking on a cat-and-mouse game with the examining magistrate. As his guilt and alienation from society intensifies, only Sonya, a prostitute and, like him, a social leper, offers any hope of redemption.
