KAFKA'S MONKEY Opens Tonight
Tonight (April 4) at 8:00pm Theatre for a New Audience, in association with Baryshnikov Arts Center, presents Kathryn Hunter in the New York premiere of Kafka's Monkey, based on A Report to an Academy by Franz Kafka, adapted by Colin Teevan. On April 21, Theatre for a New Audience, in association with Baryshnikov Arts Center, will present the return of Fragments.
Kafka's Monkey runs 18 performances through Wednesday, April 17. In the New York premiere of this savagely funny and poignant production from The Young Vic, Kathryn Hunter (Olivier Award winner, Complicité founding member) plays a reluctantly civilized ape who, dressed in white tie, tails and a bowler hat, addresses a group of distinguished scientists who have asked to hear about "his" prior life.
Kafka's Monkey will be followed by the 18-performance return engagement of Jos Houben, Kathryn Hunter and Marcello Magni in C.I.C.T. / Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord's Fragments from the texts of Samuel Beckett, directed by Peter Brook & Marie-Hélène Estienne, beginning previews Sunday, April 21, at 3:00pm for an opening that same evening at 7:00pm and a closing Sunday, May 5, at 3:00pm.
Both shows play at the Baryshnikov Arts Center's Jerome Robbins Theater, 450 West 37th Street.
