A Clockwork Orange On Stage! October 15, 2009

Time is running out! Performances are selling out! Don't miss The Raconteur's stunning staged production of one of the most provocative and vehemently challenged novels of all time!

The Raconteur/Middlesex College Present
A CLOCKWORK ORANGE
A Play by Anthony Burgess
Directed by Alex Dawson

Belching smokestacks, colossal clock cogs, the ribbed wreckage of a crashed zeppelin, all under-lit by the blazing Fires of Industry, Dawson’s steam-punk version of Anthony Burgess’s A CLOCKWORK ORANGE features a soundtrack of Beethoven symphonies screened through the fractious filters of punk, thrash, and techno, then scribble scratched by a goggle-eyed DJ sitting atop a scaffolded clock tower that rises fifteen feet above the boards. Using an aesthetic he describes as “Quadrophenia meets Brave New World,” Dawson collaborates with mod fashion designer Anu Susi, abandoning the sleazy seventies vibe of Kubrick’s film for a sort of industrial elegance: tailored suits, swine snouted gas masks, huge buckled boots and, of course, the iconic bowler.
