Last year Amir Nizar Zuabi's compelling and provocative I Am Yusuf And This Is My Brother sold out its entire run. Now, Zuabi and his groundbreaking Palestinian company ShiberHur return to the Young Vic with a dramatic retelling of Kafka's terrifying fable of violence, alienation and injustice.Far away in a remote prison camp, a man unaware of his crime is about to be strapped into an elaborate execution device. The Executioner shows no mercy but will The Visitor intervene?Amongst the cast is one of Palestine's most distinguished actors Makram Khoury (Munich, The West Wing).
