We have some exclusive video footage of Action to the Word‘s critically acclaimed, all-male theatrical production of Anthony Burgess’s ground-breaking novel, A Clockwork Orange. 

Set to tour Australia in 2013, A Clockwork Orangeis an unapologetic, visceral exploration of humanity in a “fictional” world full of violence, corruption and redemption.

Written and narrated in Nadsat – an Anglo-Russian concoction of colloquialisms that are used by the “youth of tomorrow” in a near Shakespearean lexicon of funny phrase making and jazzy-riffs, A Clockwork Orange is set to hit Australia on April 6 at Melbourne’s Malthouse before commencing a national tour.

Have you brushed up on your Nadsat?
