The Master and Margarita

The Big Red Door, Edinburgh & The Bussey Building – 2012

Moscow turned to madness by the Devil and his kin. The Master and his novel and Margarita’s sin… FRAGMENTS are revisiting their epic production ‘The Master And Margarita’ by Mikhail Bulgakov in a new version by Hannah Burke. Directed by Shane Dempsey, executed by the FRAGMENTS ensemble and researched and developed in Moscow. This highly physical production sheds new light on one of the greatest novels of The Twentieth Century and is inspired by Bulgakov’s love of the Russian Circus. FRAGMENTS is an ensemble that make, share and tell compelling stories that push the bounds of traditional storytelling. So come! Meet the Devil and his entourage, the ill fated lovers and meet us… taste a little bit of Moscow and big bit of madness…things may never be the same again.
