It has been described as an actor's dream... or an actor's nightmare. White Rabbit, Red Rabbit has no director, no set and a different actor for each performance. The actors don't get to see the script until they arrive on stage to perform this utterly wild, original play.

Imagine being 29 and forbidden to leave your country. Iranian playwright Nassim Soleimanpour turns his isolation to his own advantage with a play that dissects the experience of a whole generation. White Rabbit, Red Rabbit now travels the world in a way that he himself cannot.

White Rabbit, Red Rabbit has been performed around the world and translated into over 15 languages since it was written in 2011, and for the first time it comes to Christchurch. Book tickets at www.courttheatre.org.nz.

Performances run from 22 March to 5 April, 2014. Showtimes are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays at 8.00pm, & Mondays and Thursdays at 7.00pm. All tickets are $20 at www.courttheatre.org.nz or 963 0870.
