Coming Soon: Peter Brook’s “Battlefield”

Event: Peter Brook’s “Battlefield” presented by the Singapore Repertory Theatre
Venue: Capitol Theatre
Run: 17th – 21st Nov 2015

Opens Next Tuesday!

Legendary theatre titan Peter Brook, known for his famous 9-hour “Mahabharata”, has chosen to take the epic battle at the end of this revered piece of literature and make it a stand-alone play.

Peter Brook is probably the most famous director in the world – a true titan of theatre.

30 years ago, he staged a nine hour production of the Indian epic, “The Mahabharata”, which has become one of the seminal works of the 20th century.

Now, at the age of 90, Peter Brook will explore the last chapter of that epic as a stand-alone play.

This new play “Battlefield”, co-commissioned by the SRT, premiered at the Théâtre des Bouffes du Nord in Paris in September 2015, and will make its international premiere at the Capitol Theatre from 17th to 21st November before going on a world tour.

In 2013, SRT in collaboration with Esplanade, brought in “3 Titans of Theatre” – Simon McBurney, Yukio Ninagawa and Peter Brook’s production of “The Suit”.
