Wick Theatre's production of Anna Karenina, directed by Diane Robinson.
In Anna Karenina, adapted by Helen Edmundson, Tolstoy’s huge novel is reduced to a gripping play which somehow manages to be both intimate and epic, getting right to the heart of the characters, but also capturing the scale of the novel.
This play, set in late 19th century Russia, was first performed by Shared Experience Theatre Company, for which it won the Time out Award in 1992 for ‘Outstanding theatrical event.'
Rich with vibrant characters, this very physical adaptation of Tolstoy’s classic novel carries us from the bustle and glitter of Moscow to the snow-swept Russian Steppes. Unforgettable.
