Montreal's Infinithéâtre Presents KAFKA'S APE, 8/7-17

By:

Montreal's Infinithéâtre presents Kafka's Ape, adapted and directed by Guy Sprung, as part of SummerWorks, August 7-17 at The Ballroom at the Gladstone Hotel, 1214 Queen Street West.

"Howard Rosenstein knocks it out of the park in the title role. Bravo!" - Pat Donnelly of Montreal Gazette
Based on Franz Kafka's short story A Report to an Academy (1917), and adapted by director Guy Sprung from the original German, Kafka's Ape upends the notion of civilization and what it means to be human in a world of routinized inhumanity.

An unnerving satire on "otherness" and the compounding growth of private military companies, Kafka's Ape stars Howard Rosenstein as keynote speaker - and primate - Mr. Redpeter in a theatrical tour-de-force performance.
