A world-premiere adaptation of Franz Kafka's The Trial by Jared Reed. Josef K. wakes up one morning and is arrested and prosecuted for an unspecified crime, never knowing why. From this most simple premise, Kafka spins a nightmare like no other. Six actors, all members of Curio Theatre's growing ensemble, portray all the novel's characters in this surreal and maddening tragicomedy which spotlights bureaucracy and paranoia.
