A chilling, at times rather bizarre, extremely relevant and thought provoking production Arts Hub

The Plot
Poor and desperately trying to provide for his wife and young child, Woyzeck agrees to take part in a military medical trial to top up his measly soldier’s pay. Subjected to bizarre medical experiments, the oppressive regime of the military and finally the infidelity of his wife Marie, what sane action is left for Woyzeck to take?

This story is told with a with a wild visual aesthetic, humour, live music, dance and a superb ensemble cast, and director Netta Yashchin beautifully stitches together the hallucinatory moments of Büchner’s famous unfinished play Woyzeck. Previously a member of Israel’s Itim Ensemble and founder of the Yashchin Ensemble in Adelaide, B Sharp welcomed Netta Yashchin to the Downstairs Theatre to present her interpretation of this iconic 19th century masterpiece.

The performers are all fantastic, and although Büchner's vision is almost unrelentingly bleak, the play's black humour and intriguing visuals make it uplifting too. Yashchin has also wisely retained the work's air of mystery and kept it deliberately ambiguous. Time Out Sydney
