An Indecent Incident

An Indecent Incident from A Nasty Story by Fyodor Dostoevsky
Adapted and produced by Aisha Zia
Directed by Evie Manning
21st & 22nd September 2009, London.

A site-specific promenade play about a man's fall from his own ideals.

"Its theme is the terrible gulf between a man's idea of himself, his ideals, and his motives, and what they prove to be in the harsh light of reality. Its cruelty lies in the recognition that the tragedy of failure to come up to one's own expectations... is essentially comic..." Jessie Coulson, 1966.
