Based on the classic short story, “Diary of a Madman” by Nikolai Gogol, this trailer and the prologue were crafted in collaboration with Vulgo Theatre, weaving in elements from Gogol’s text and created as a separate piece for the upcoming stage adaptation premiering in late October.

Those familiar with the farcical tale will catch the subtle nods and references throughout the trailer.

The 8-min prologue, featuring the incredible Attila Gonczy as Poprishchin, will be showcased as a precursor to the grand production and sets the stage for an electrifying and intense one-man show that will unfold at the Hong Kong Arts Centre.
