Brothers Karamazov, The

Synopsis:
As described in the New York Times, "If the BROtheRS KARAMAZOV were only a crime play, it would be enthralling enough for anyone in search of entertainment. But since the theatre version by Boris Tumarin and Jack Sydow naturally derives from Dostoyevsky, it goes deeper than crime. It probes into the whole philosophy of life in a Christian civilization. It also involves hallucinations and the ambivalence of the human personality; and since it its Russian it swings violently from love to hatred, both of which are described with turbulent emotions. . . In literal terms, the BROtheRS KARAMAZOV is a complex, baffling crime story with what we might call Kafka overtones today. What makes it great, however, are the questions it asks about good and evil, guilt and innocence, religion and atheism. the current version gives you the essence of Dostoyevsky in a blunt, sobering fashion."

written by Boris Tumarin And Jack Sydow, from Dostoyevsky's novel
