Scandinavian premiere

”CASANOVA UNDONE”

by critically acclaimed playwright Dic Edwards

Casanova Undone is directed by award winning director Barry McKenna.

The legendary Casanova is the main character in this comedy about the degenerate libertine with his potency on the decline. It’s a fun romp of sexual chicanery; where men metamorphose into women and women into men and some find out they're better off staying where they are...! Set against the backdrop of the French Revolution, lives and reputations get the chop!"

A funny and provocative play about power and sex.

The play takes place during the last period of Casanova’s life; he is writing his memoirs. With the help of his servant Costa, he’s determined not to be forgotten and remembered according to his own agenda.

The British press wrote about the play:

"This witty and compelling philosophical farce spotlights the degenerate rake. A fine new play.", The Observer.

"It's one of those delightful plays where you're sitting there and laughing uproariously at the wit of the language and then you suddenly understand that the themes themselves are very witty, very well thought out and very provocative”, BBC Radio 4

That Theatre Company’s director, Ian Burns, who plays the part of Casanova says: ”Dic Edwards has been described by Edward Bond as one of the most exciting writers of his generation because he helps us to understand our ordinary world by opening up the extraordinary world of our minds. I’m delighted to introduce Dic Edwards to an audience in Denmark”.
