SUDS Presents: Caligula

Caligula By Albert Camus

“Caligula is the story of a superior suicide. It is the story of the most human and tragic of errors. Unfaithful to humanity, loyal to himself, Caligula consents to die for having understood that he cannot save himself all alone, and that he cannot be free in opposition to all others.” - Albert Camus

After the death of his sister Caligula goes missing for three days. Upon his return he is changed; obsessed by the quest for the impossible and poisoned by contempt and horror he murders, perverts all values, and seeks the ultimate freedom. He rejects friendship and love, alienates his friends, distorts good and evil, and forces the people around him to a dangerous and enchanting logic. But Caligula realises that one cannot destroy without destroying oneself. He slowly depopulates the world around him and, true to his logic, makes arrangements to arm those who will eventually kill him.

In ‘Caligula’ cast and crew have come together to bring to life Camus’ story of Rome’s most logical emperor. Sound, movement, and Camus’ words combine to create a hypnotic, disorienting story of grief, politics, and love.
