Crime and Punishment
Cleveland Play House
Wildly theatrical and rich in language, Columbus and Campbell's Crime and Punishment condenses the action down to 90 minutes, and features a cast of three performers in an acting tour de force. This conversation on the nature of evil is set in the mind of a murderer where he relives and explores - through the urging of a detective and a young prostitute - the thoughts, ideas and feelings that drove him to his horrible crime. The play is a psychological landscape, a thrilling journey into the mind of a killer and his search for redemption. Raskolnikov, the murderer, speaks directly to the audience at times, making his case and taking us on a spiritual journey that seeks to unveil hidden dimensions of the human condition.
