Life & Times of Michael K

Event information

Following its sold out success last year, Nobel Prize-winning author JM Coetzee’s, Life and Times of Michael K, adapted for the stage by Lara Foot, in collaboration with the Tony Award-winning Handspring Puppet Company, returns to The Baxter, by public demand, for a limited season.

A frighteningly beautiful story that follows a simple man who embarks on a journey through a South Africa, shattered by civil war, to return his mother to die on the farm where she was born. A co-production between Theater der Welt Düsseldorf 2021, Düsseldorfer Schauspielhaus, Baxter Theatre Centre and Les Théâtres de la Ville de Luxembourg.
