Kurt Vonnegut’s anti-war sci-fi is probably one of the most censored novels of the 20th century. Published in 1969, it’s a methodical indictment of war and a sharp critique of traditional American values. The book has been reproached for its obscene and graphic writing, the exact same reasons why it remains such a relevant and uncompromising piece of literature. Eric Simonson’s acclaimed adaptation barges into Southwark Playhouse with its unyielding message. Director Douglas Baker reinforces the story’s nature as a parable of resistance and a cautionary tale against the dehumanising practices of warfare.
