Boris Nikitin - WOYZECK
The historical Woyzeck murdered his lover and ended a hangman. But that did not close the trial. The term “sanity” from now on was a key legal vocabulary and Büchner’s vintage point for his endeavours into the issue.
Boris Nikitin turns Büchner’s fragment into a furious monologue, a breathtaking play, and a new and renewed discourse on sanity.
