Based on Franz Kafka's short story A Report to an Academy (1917), and adapted by director Guy Sprung from the original German, Kafka's Ape upends the notion of civilization and what it means to be human in a world of routinized inhumanity.
"Howard Rosenstein knocks it out of the park in the title role. Bravo!"
- Pat Donnelly of Montreal Gazette
An unnerving satire on "otherness" and the compounding growth of private military companies, Kafka's Ape stars Howard Rosenstein as keynote speaker - and primate - Mr. Redpeter in a theatrical tour-de-force performance.
With Alexandra Montagnese as Mrs. Redpeter.
