NUTS and The Gods' Cafe present One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest, Dale Wasserman's acclaimed adaptation of Ken Kesey's novel, directed by Cara Irvine.
Randall McMurphy's arrival in an institute for the mentally ill threatens to tear down the thin boundaries between the sane and the insane, while the fierce Nurse Ratched battles against him. An absorbing and relevant investigation of our treatment of the mentally ill, Cuckoo's Nest is both hilarious and thoughtful, and features a cast of up-and-coming Canberra performers.
Tickets are $10 for NUTS Members, $15 for students, and $20 full price. They can be purchased at the door.
Three performances: Thursday 6th, Friday 7th and Saturday 8th @ 8PM in the ANU Arts Centre (Building 16). The Gods Cafe will be open before the show and during interval for drinks and tapas.
As our final show for 2008, the revived National University Theatre Society would like to thank our supporters: the ANU Drama Department, moonlight productions, the ANU Students' Association, Teatro Vivaldi Theatre Restaurant, and the Gods' Cafe.
Starring:
Ben Williams as McMurphy and Bronwyn Hill as Nurse Ratched with Duncan Ragg, Shane Pike, Pete Dabro, Peter Stiles, Natalia Thomas, Chris Endry, Ross Walker, Bojana Kos, Clare Hedley, Simon Thomson, Shaun Wykes, Matt Skinner, John Bannon, Sol Mason
