“Force the gates, storm the place, and kill anyone in your way. He’s in there.”

Franz is a cunning manipulator obsessed with materialism, embarking on a quest for money and power. Karl is a charismatic rebel, hiding out in the forest and inciting an anarchic revolution. They couldn’t be more different. Yet these two brothers are locked in a dangerous competition for their father’s love and a vast inheritance.

Tackling violence, class, religion, civil liberties and state intervention, this shocking debut play by the greatest young dramatist of his day is unleashed in an exciting new version by the faction: a theatre collective of young theatre-makers radically reinventing the classics.
