Description
A fresh and accessible adaptation of Dostoyevsky's masterful novel, Crime and Punishment brings to life the story of Raskolnikov, a young man driven by disillusionment and guilt. As he navigates a complex web of poverty, prostitution, and deception, Raskolnikov must confront the harsh realities of his own morality. Through a fluid and theatrical narrative, Chris Hannan reimagines the story, exploring themes of humanity and redemption in a gripping psychological thriller. With its unique style and language, this adaptation offers a powerful and thought-provoking reading experience. Written by Scottish playwright and novelist Chris Hannan, Crime and Punishment is a beautiful and profoundly theatrical account of one of literature's greatest stories.
