A Clockwork Orange: Anthony Burgess’ original literary masterpiece, live on stage in the award-winning and electrifying production, direct from a sold-out run in London.

A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess lures audiences into a glass-edged, testosterone filled underworld of a dystopian future. The explosive story of little Alex and his rebellious gang of Droogs is a ground-breaking classic of orgiastic ultra-violence and sexuality. The story feels as hauntingly relevant today as when the book was published in 1962, and when Stanley Kubrick’s ground-breaking film caused a stir in 1971. A Clockwork Orange remains an unapologetic celebration of the human condition.

But the hookup to such references may have been triggered by Frankie Goes to Hollywood’s Relax, an anticipated component of the the play’s jukebox soundtrack (which includes Bowie and Placebo), one to rival Master, then Mistress of the Moog synthesizer, Walter (now Wendy) Carlos’ A Clockwork Orange film score. Spencer-Jones, faithful to Anthony Burgess’ 1962 novel, has made a wise move in evading Stanley Kubrick’s intergenerational must-see 1971 film adaptation. Instead, she has opted for lassoing Burgess’ teen-speak Nadsat dialect with as much nimble, combative choreography as the pumped-up cast of nine can generate. Our antihero Alex deLarge (Jonno Davies), an adroit 15-year-old Beethoven fanatic and his three droogs, Pete (Misha Osherovich), Georgie (Matt Doyle) and Dim (Sean …Read more
