Story for The Trial
THE TRIAL is a special staged reading performance as part of "Politics of the Absurd", a new series featuring classic absurdist comedies that explore the absurdity and peril of our current political environment.
On the morning of his 30th birthday, Josef K. is unexpectedly arrested by two unidentified strangers from an unidentified agency for an unspecified crime. Although K. maintains that he is innocent, he soon learns that acquittal is impossible. What happens to a once respectable man when he is suddenly prosecuted for apparently no reason at all?
Featuring Brian Wiles (“Public Morals”, “Turn”), Brian D. Coats (Jitney, “Boardwalk Empire”), John Rothman (Ghostbusters, “One Mississippi”) Sam Breslin Wright (“Madame Secretary”, The Beaver), and Tony nominee Kristine Neilson (Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike, You Can’t Take it With You).
