Event Information

Spend an evening of fun at the Essex Community Players' production of "Crime and Punishment, A Comedy" by Gordon Greenberg and Steve Rosen. Don't worry if you skipped "Crime and Punishment" on your reading list, you'll still be in on the jokes! Tickets available for October 16-31st!

Dostoevsky's turn-of-the-century masterpiece is reimagined as a 90-minute romp of a morality tale, with five actors playing over 50 zany characters. Riffing on the famous novel - and all of Russian literature - brilliant comic collaborators Gordon Greenberg and Steve Rosen bring the whacked-out sensibilities of Dracula: A Comedy of Terrors to 1860s Russia. This classic story follows Raskolnikov, an impoverished student who becomes a murderer in order to save his family. Based on the book you didn't actually read in high school, this is literature retold as you've never seen it before.
