Inside a psychiatric facility, Chief Bromden has been silent for years — confined and maligned by a system that labels, divides and forgets. Enter Randle P. McMurphy, a gambler and provocateur whose defiance unsettles the ward — and sparks something long dormant in Bromden and his fellow patients. Under the iron rule of Nurse Ratched, they have been stripped of their humanity. Now, McMurphy's rebellion reminds the patients of their voices — and what it means to be free. Based on Ken Kesey's countercultural masterpiece and adapted by Dale Wasserman, this bold new staging reignites the spirit of the original novel. A searing exploration of colonialism and the social structures built to silence dissent.
