Gogol's Madman

Performance dates - 29/07/10 - 30/07/10
Performance time - 8pm

Little Earthquake presents GOGOL'S MADMAN by Gareth Nicholls based on ‘Diary of a Madman’ by Nikolai Gogol

“Outstanding” – Nottingham Evening Post

“It’s this kind of work that’s breaking new ground” – Ten4 Magazine


Saddled with a surname meaning pimple, hounded by talking dogs, and harassed by his plate-smashing mother, life is hard for St. Petersburg’s most misunderstood lonely heart. When Poprishchin falls truly, deeply...and madly in love, reason and order fall spectacularly apart.

Using the company’s trademark transformation of everyday objects into the stuff of nightmares, Little Earthquake presents an inventive, highly-charged stage version of Gogol’s gripping story, recently voted by Penguin as one of the best books ever written.

Since it was formed in 2005, Little Earthquake has built a reputation for unearthing the curious stories which lurk in the neglected corners of our imaginations. Previous productions by the company has included The Premature Burial, adapted from the short story by Edgar Allan Poe and The Haunting and The Houdini Exposure all receiving critical acclaim from the press and public alike.

Gogol’s Madman was the company’s debut production, last seen in 2006 and now revived by popular demand, which is returning to the West Midlands before the company take the production to Australia.

Visit the company’s website at www.little-earthquake.com for further information.
