Crime and Punishment

exhibition
Following *Frankenstein* last season, the Karyatides company redeploys the poetic universe and technical mastery of object theatre that has earned their success in Europe. Their new creation delves deeply and intensely into Raskolnikov's consciousness, the main character imagined by Dostoevsky in *Crime and Punishment* (1866). This impoverished student murders a malicious old pawnbroker to assert his moral superiority in an unjust and twisted society. Aware of the atrocity of his crime, wracked with remorse and delirium, the young man is convinced that he will soon be exposed by Inspector Porphyry. Underworld cabaret, tribunal of the conscience, and haunting rock music: the Belgian company revisits this masterpiece of Russian literature, raising the question: what, ultimately, are we, as humans, responsible for? A discussion with the artistic team will take place after the premiere performance.
