Rhum + Clay presents

Project Dictator

(Or Why Democracy Is Overrated And I Don’t Miss It At All)

A Rhum + Clay Production.
Originally commissioned and premiered at New Diorama Theatre.

Their choice? To die onstage – or off it.

Beautiful and bonkers – it’s the clown show about totalitarianism we never knew we needed.

Informed and inspired by conversations with international artists living under authoritarian regimes.

Rhum + Clay return after 2019’s smash hit The War of the Worlds and 2018’s The Stage Award-winning Mistero Buffo.

What did audiences think?

"...surprising, disturbing, and, at its conclusion, desperately moving"
