Gregor Samsa wakes up each morning, quietly leaves the house to take the same train, and works to pay off the family debt. But that world explodes one morning, when Gregor awakes to find himself changed. To those around him he is dangerous, untouchable vermin. Worse than that, he is a burden. Metamorphosis, Franz Kafka's shocking tale of cruelty and kindness, has been a literary landmark since it was first published in 1915. Lemn Sissay's thrilling stage adaptation is a visceral and vital depiction of humans struggling within a system that crushes them under its heel. It was commissioned and first produced in 2023 by Frantic Assembly, in a co-production with Theatre Royal Plymouth, Curve, MAST Mayflower Studios and Lyric Hammersmith Theatre, and was directed by Scott Graham.

Franz Kafka

Franz Kafka was a Czech-born writer known for his surreal and existential works that explored themes of alienation, bureaucracy, and the human experience. His most notable works include "The Metamorphosis," "The Trial," and "The Castle." Kafka's writing style is characterized by its minimalist and precise language, as well as its dark and absurdist themes. His works have had a significant impact on the literary genre of existentialism and have been widely studied and interpreted by scholars and readers alike. "The Metamorphosis," in which a man wakes up to find himself transformed into a giant insect, is considered Kafka's most famous work and a classic of 20th-century literature. Kafka's unique perspective and exploration of the complexities of the human condition continue to resonate with readers around the world.
