Archduke

Overview

“Maybe the world don’t have to end at all. We can just get off the train… go get a sandwich.”

Belgrade, 1914. Three hungry young men are offered something to eat (and the chance to change the course of history). Their mission: kill Archduke Franz Ferdinand and set the century alight. 

Sharp, funny and dangerously timely, Archduke blends biting wit with mounting tension in a thrilling new production for an age of restless young men.
