Lancaster Arts welcomes Tim Crouch back to the Nuffield theatre with his new provocative and exciting solo work.
Truth’s a Dog Must to Kennel draws on ideas of virtual reality to send him back to the future of the play he left, Shakespeare’s King Lear. Back to a world laid waste by division and trauma; a world where the revolution will take place on a screen.
This is a daring piece of theatre that switches between scathingly funny stand-up and an audacious act of collective imagining. It’s a celebration of live performance and a skewering of the state we’re in now. King Lear meets stand-up meets the metaverse.
'an emotive, filthy love letter to the almost-lost art of being in a room, together'
★★★★ Financial Times
'it is as if we ourselves are at the turbulent centre of King Lear'
★★★★ The Guardian
'one of the most important writers and theatre makers in the UK'
