This June, New Surry Theatre brings you Dale Wasserman’s award-winning stage adaptation of the novel by Ken Kesey. Directed by Michael Reichgott.

Randle McMurphy is a boisterous, charming, life-affirming rogue who contrives to serve a short sentence in a mental institution rather than in jail. Once there, he clashes with the head nurse, and manages to accomplish what the medical profession had failed to do, leading many of the other patients out of introversion. McMurphy stages numerous revolts against the head nurse, and his defiance, which starts as sport, quickly develops into a grim power struggle with the institution.

Called “one of the finest, most meaningful and moving plays of recent times” buy WPIX TV and “scarifying and powerful” by the NY Times, Cuckoo’s Nest is not to be missed. Veteran NST actor Michael Reichgott (Proof, Oliver!, The Man of La Mancha and Sylvia, to name just a few) makes his directorial debut. The production features Tim Pugliese, Shari John, George Neptune and Nolan Ellsworth along with many other long-time NST actors.
