Chiten Theatre: The Gambler
The Coronet Theatre, W11 3LB , [Venue Details]Kyoto-based Chiten Theatre, led by director Motoi Miura, return to The Coronet with a dazzling new interpretation of Dostoevsky’s internationally celebrated classic novel The Gambler.
Dostoevsky’s biting portrait of chance, class, ambition and desire is reimagined through Chiten’s distinctive theatrical language – fragmented, musical, and raw – and underscored live by the pulsing soundscapes of experimental rock trio kukangendai.
A roulette addict himself, Dostoevsky wrote The Gambler in 1866 under a strict deadline to pay off his gambling debts. He bet the publishing rights of all of his past and future works, wagering that he would complete the novel within 30 days.
Chiten’s production of Osamu Dazai’s GOOD-BYE sold out in record time at The Coronet in 2024, gripping audiences with its remarkable adaptation of a literary classic.
Presented in Japanese with English surtitles.
