Don't see it if you don’t want to feel depressed I guess
See it if You like a tragi comedy from a Russian great in a modern setting
Don't see it if You don’t enjoy a 75minute monologue
See it if Clever play with a strong actor. Surprisingly simple but clever staging.

See it if You're a big fan of Dostoevsky, love solo shows, or want to see a cool theatre in Marylebone.
Don't see it if You're easily bored or looking for something really engaging.
