A powerful psychological thriller based on an infamous true story, Roberto Zucco by Bernard-Marie Koltès (Translated By Martin Crimp) follows a young lost soul driven to commit terrible crimes, seemingly without motive. Italian Roberto Zucco, aged 18, was sent to prison after violently murdering his parents. Five years later, he escaped and went on the run, defying police in three countries. Changing his identity many times, he embarked on a crime spree for two years – undetected. The play examines the concept of, where does evil come from? Is evil learned, is it forced upon a person or is a person just born that way?
