The Acting Company (Canberra) and Shadow House PITS presents
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

18 Mar 2014 to 29 Mar 2014

One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest is set in a hospital for the mentally ill.: McMurphy has a criminal past and has once again gotten himself into trouble with the law. To escape labor duties in prison, McMurphy pleads insanity and is sent to a ward for the mentally unstable. Once there, McMurphy both endures and stands witness to the abuse and degradation of the oppressive Nurse Ratched, who gains superiority and power through the flaws of the other inmates. McMurphy and the other inmates band together to make a rebellious stance against the atrocious Nurse.
