“Newly single bachelor David must learn to conform to his world’s dystopian adult dating climate in a 45-day ‘Relationship Hotel’—or transform into the eponymous crustacean. With such a limited time to find the love of their life, the propagandising of the nuclear family in the hotel breeds a deep fear of loneliness in the hearts of each guest—terrified to discover what life after the hotel could mean. Laced with unflinchingly dark humour, the play is sure to appeal to fans of the original film and win over the hearts of newcomers. Will David meet his match and ascend beyond his claustrophobic confines, or succumb to his aquatic fate?”
Stuff & Things Theatre is thrilled to produce the world-premiere stage adaptation of the 2015 award-winning black comedy film ‘The Lobster’, originally written by Yorgos Lanthimos and Efthimis Filippou, starring Colin Farrell and Rachel Weisz. THE LOBSTER is a riveting, 75-minute theatrical take on the titular film, directed by prolific Pōneke-based creatives, Daniel Nodder and Anna Secker. An enthralling combination of classic absurdism and striking physical theatre, backed by a dramatic orchestral sound design (by Nodder & Teddy O’Neill), THE LOBSTER is a must-see for film fanatics and strangers alike.
Licensed under special arrangement with Yorgos Lanthimos, Efthimis Filippou & Sayle Screen Ltd.
