Complicité’s latest production, Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead, explores the vivid imagery of Nobel prize-winning writer Olga Tokarczuk's darkly comic novel and the puzzling universality of a murder story set in the wilds of the Polish/Czech border. It's not the first time that echoes of Poland have appeared in the ensemble's work.
Discover more as Professor Tomasz Wiśniewski and Dr Angeliki Varakis-Martin explore the Polish themes and influences across the world-renowned company's repertoire, including The Street of Crocodiles (1992) and Mnemonic (1999).
Supported by the European Theatre Research Network at the University of Kent, Between.Pomiędzy Research Group and organised in partnership with the Polish Cultural Institute, London.
