A Clockwork Orange, Theatre Royal Stratford East, Stratford

Anthony Burgess’s dystopic classic gets a makeover for the stage –Alex and his droogs are now a bunch of London lads up to no good. With the riots still fresh in the mind, the story of wayward youth and free will is as timely as ever. The jazzy soundtrack is an interesting addition – not sure what Stanley Kubrick would have made of that.
