A darkly comic stage adaptation of The Trial, relocating Kafka's classic novel to twenty-first-century London.

On his thirtieth birthday, Joseph K has his sushi home-delivery intercepted by two unidentified men who inform him he is under arrest. He has no idea what he's done wrong but he's determined to clear his name.

As he tries to make sense of his situation and to confront those who threaten his freedom, Joseph is thrown headlong into a fight against an invisible and illogical law.

Tom Basden's play Joseph K was first staged at the Gate Theatre, London, in 2010.
