D H Lawrence: The Prussian Officer

Power. Desire. Control. Set within a harsh military world, The Prussian Officer charts the explosive relationship between a young orderly and his commanding officer. What starts as obedience twists into dangerous obsession as authority and attraction collide. Ben Mills-Wood’s charged new adaptation of D H Lawrence’s story shines a fierce light on repression, class and the human cost of desire denied. With striking performances and bold direction, this taut psychological drama reveals how passion, when silenced, becomes destructive – a gripping battle between control and surrender that leaves lasting scars.
