Critically-acclaimed Iranian playwright, Bahram Beyzaie wrote ‘The Death of the King’ shortly after the Iranian Revolution. Beyzaie’s play tells the story of a family charged with treason, and accused of killing their nation’s ruler. The execution gallows are being prepared while a miller, his wife, and their daughter embark on a desperate bid to reveal the truth about their despotic, yet desperate, leader. This highly-inventive and physical production explores the vulnerability of ordinary citizens struggling under the extraordinary circumstances of their political fate.
