Inner Temple Drama Society
Kafka meets Monty Python when mild-mannered accountant Jo is arrested abroad for a nonsensical crime. Their predicament escalates into a surreal nightmare of endless red tape and baffling legal theatrics. They enlist Sam, a UK barrister armed with a powdered wig and an unshakable belief in justice. As Sam fights for fairness within an arbitrarily punitive system, their logic is met with absurdity at every turn. A sharp parody of Kafka’s The Trial, The Trial: In Absurdia skewers bureaucracy, legal quirks and the limits of fairness, blending witty dialogue, surreal twists and biting satire.
