The stage adaptation of Ken Kesey’s celebrated 1962 novel explores the brutality of life in a mental institution with humor, candor, and unforgettable characters. The band of misfits – Harding, Martini, Cheswick, Billy Bibbit, and Scanlon, still live in Dale Wasserman’s stage adaptation of the still live in this stage adaptation of the classic counterculture fable. The silent giant, Chief Bromden, watches as the band twitches and cowers under the icy sway of Nurse Ratched until a savior in a leather jacket stomps into the ward. RP McMurphy, a self confessed psychopathic mad dog does battle with Nurse Ratched. Misrule and free will struggle against order and conformity in a tragicomic fight to the finish.
