Where: Jacksons Lane, 269a Archway Road, London N6 5AA

What is it?

Diary of a Madman is a new adaptation of Nikolai Gogol’s classic tale.  Tim Lenkiewicz gives it a new twist by combining acrobatics and animation.  Lenkiewicz is well placed for this project as he is a juggler, acrobat and fire dancer who has attended the Kiev State College for Circus & Variety Arts.

This is an opportunity to see a new piece of theatre in its first stages of production.  Comments from the audience will be welcomed afterwards.
