The Lesson
‘In this world of ours, Mademoiselle, one can never be sure of anything…’
Icarus’ blistering and award-winning production of Eugene Ionesco’s classic dark comedy returns to the stage.
A mild-mannered professor takes on a new pupil, and swiftly descends into tyranny, becoming bent on her destruction; a comically surreal exposé about power, knowledge and those who hoard both.
A dynamic projection design encapsulates the beating heart of Ionesco’s text and interweaves exciting new Creative Captioning technology to ensure that every performance is accessible for D/deaf and hard of hearing audiences.
Supported by Arts Council England, and Mantle.
It is impossible not to enjoy Icarus Theatre’s production of Ionesco’s one-act play.
Timely and fascinating.
