The Trial

The Trial
An Opera by Philip Glass
Libretto by Christopher Hampton
Based on the Story of Franz Kafka

The system knows you better than you know yourself. 

Kafka’s nightmarish world comes alive in Philip Glass’ The Trial, an Australian premiere with Lost and Found Opera. Arrested for an unnamed crime, Josef K. is swept through a surreal maze of bureaucracy. Jarrad Wall leads a stellar cast in this thrilling, darkly comic production that resonates uncannily with our times. Glass’ hypnotic score pulses with suspense, irony and haunting beauty.
