CLEANSED

By Sarah Kane
Directed by Dino Dimitriadis

"Savagely beautiful." – TIMEOUT, Cleansed

Somewhere, someplace. Six abandoned souls try to save themselves through love. But an ominous observer puts their declarations to the ultimate test.

Director, Dino Dimitriadis (Angels in America, Metamorphoses, Doubt), and their team, will set the Old Fitz alight with Sarah Kane's iconic masterpiece. Uncompromising and visionary, a rarely-staged and savage portrait of the human heart.

“The secret behind director Dino Dimitriadis' production: we are close enough to the work to see our own reflection. It could crack you open…"
- TIMEOUT, Angels in America
