THE FIRST SHOW OF THE SEASON!!!!

Kicking off the new season at Jellicoe Theatre, we’re taking you into the strange, surreal and wonderfully absurd world of Joseph K.

Based on Franz Kafka’s The Trial and written by Tom Basden, Joseph K follows a man who wakes up one morning to discover he’s been arrested, without being told what he’s done.

What follows is a darkly comic journey through bureaucracy, paranoia and a world where nothing is quite what it seems.

JOSEPH K
A play by Tom Basden
📍 Jellicoe Theatre, Bournemouth & Poole College
📅 2–3 December 2026

Come with us down the rabbit hole… and try to figure out what Joseph K has done.

More details & tickets coming soon.
