Cincinnatus Comes to Barons Court Theatre

---

Play based on Nabokov's Invitation to a Beheading

In this dark comical portrayal of one man’s helplessness in the face of others’ indifference, Cincinnatus – a commonplace resident of a fictional town, is arrested and sentenced to death for an undefined crime.

Locked in his cell he urges the authorities to let him know, at least, the date of his beheading; only to be denied even that 'consolation'.

Meanwhile, as he awaits execution, the beleaguered prisoner is visited by a host of characters who seem completely incapable of understanding (or at any rate empathising) with the gravity of his predicament!
