Synopsis

A doorway to a new future is ready to open.

We are the hinge of that moment.

We will let the door swing wide.

On a beautiful spring evening – when both moons are full – two teenagers vow eternal love.

It is a moment that will have cataclysmic consequences.

Not just for them, but for the world on which they live.

A world where Prom Night is a matter of life or death, where weapons are grown and trained like pets, and where a chosen few are hearing a voice.

A voice that speaks of ...

Karagula.

Philip Ridley's extraordinary, form-shattering Karagula is a play of epic proportions.

Written in a fractured timescale, it explores our constant need to find meaning.

To believe we're here for a reason.

To have faith in something.

Faith in ... anything.

Karagula received its world premiere on 10 June 2016 at a secret London location in one of the largest productions ever staged in the Off-West End.
