Two award-winning shows translate Kafka's dark parable of un-belonging for the modern day. Kafka's story 'A Report for an Academy' finds its way into blistering explorations of race and migration, and grownup reflections on aging and humanimal agency, at the same time metamorphising prose into drama and stand-up comedy. Kafka as you've never seen or heard him before.
The double bill features Kafka's Ape at 7pm followed by Ed Gaughan's Word's & Music at 9pm.
This event is part of the Humanities Division's Programme for #OxfordReadsKafka.
