barebones productions is returning to the New Hazlett Theater to produce its largest production to date: Dale Wasserman’s adaptation of Ken Kesey’s novel One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest.
Randle McMurphy charms his way onto a psych ward thinking it’s surely the easy way to serve out a six-month prison term. There he encounters Nurse Ratched, a disciplined and extremely focused agent of authority. Randle uses his charisma and humor to breathe life into the ward and lead the other patients into open rebellion. But McMurphy’s revolution against Nurse Ratched and everything she stands for quickly turns from sport to a fierce power struggle – with shattering results.
Presented by barebones productions, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest will be performed Thursday, April 21 through Saturday, May 7 at the New Hazlett Theater. For more information, including performance times, or to purchase your tickets, visit the One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest event page.
