Director Krystian Lupa brings us face to face with madness in his signature piece, an adaptation of Thomas Bernhard's 1970 novel Das Kelkwerk. Poland's celebrated Narodowy Stary Teatr depicts the complex story of Konrad, a scientist mentally imprisoned by his work, and his wheelchair-bound wife, the two of them surrounded by the bleakness of an abandoned limeworks. Lupa's ingenious direction captures the frightening essence of an obsessive mind and our unpleasant recognition of the same.
