Bruiser Theatre Company is back on the road, and coming to The Market Place Theatre in Armagh, with ‘The Nose’, a hilarious comedy that shines a merciless light on the murky world of bureaucracy. This great new show will be fun, fast, visually exciting and very funny.
In this fresh new adaptation of Nikolai Gogol’s classic story, Alexey, a government bureaucrat, awakens one morning horrified to discover that his nose has run off! Join Alexey as he frantically tries to stop his runaway nose from causing him all manner of public humiliation and get back on his face! This adaptation pokes fun at the incompetence of ‘the powers that be’ and the superficial nature of society’s ‘respectable’ classes.
Gogol‘s short story of the Nose wonderfully captures the public downfall of a man in Government by removing his nose entirely from his face; forcing the corrupt politician to face ridicule and shame as his nose runs around creating havoc in the city. Completely absurd and manic in style, ‘The Nose’ is a satirical masterpiece that is just as relevant today as it was back in 1836. ‘The Nose’ is a dark physical comedy, completely bonkers with of course, an element of truth.
‘The Nose’ will be staged at The Market Place Theatre in Armagh on Saturday 12th April at 8pm. Tickets are priced £12 and £10 (concession), and can be booked by contacting the Box Office on [028] 3752 1821, or online at www.marketplacearmagh.com
