One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

By DALE WASSERMAN

Adaped from the novel by KEN KESEY

An all-time classic

8-12 September 2009

Set in a state mental institution in America the 1960s, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Next has as its hero Randle P MacMurphy, a loving, fighting, gambling life-affirming brawler who swaggers into the hospital, rallies the other patients and challenges the dictatorship of the Big Nurse. But this defiance, which starts as a sport, soon turns into a grim struggle; an all out war between authority and free will, ending in a shocking climax.

At once hilarious and heroic, tragic and liberating, Sedos is delighted to present this all time classic play.
