Venichka Erofeev (Venya); cultured alcoholic; self-mocking intellectual; regales us with an account of his heroic odyssey from Moscow to provincial Petushki. Stories of his rich; turbulent inner life abound as he staggers through Brezhnevs Moscow and encounters dangerous; eccentric and often hilarious strangers on a train. His journey ends when fate cruelly intervenes curtailing the vivid panorama of Russian life that we have seen through Venyas eyes. Stephen Mulrines adaptation for one actor of Erofeevs cult novel has been highly acclaimed on BBC Radio 3; at the Edinburgh Festival; Londons West End; and New York in Tom Courtenays blissfully funny performance.
