The Reckoning
About this event
Why don’t you start with when the war began for you? The Man from Stoyanka is a security guard, just an ordinary man. But when everyone else flees, he stays. As his home turns into a no man’s land, he chooses to take extraordinary action. And she’s there to record it – for the history books, the courts, for humanity. Playful and unsettling, Offie-nominated The Reckoning blends storytelling, movement, music and cooking to bring one man’s truth into sharp, startling relief. Written by Anastasiia Kosodii and Josephine Burton, and directed by Burton, it is a vivid and powerful new play about war, survival and the fragile trust between those who uncover the truth and those who must live with it. Based on real events within The Reckoning Project’s verified archive of witness testimonies of the Russian war in Ukraine, each performance is followed by Food for Thought, a reflection from a journalist, lawyer or those with direct experience of the conflict. ★★★★ ‘Powerful and important – a reminder of our collective responsibility to bear witness.’ The Stage ★★★★★ ‘There is not a moment that you are not gripped.’ Theatre and Tonic ★★★★ ‘A forensic charge sheet in dramatic form.’ The Guardian
