Description .::...
A victim of forces beyond his control, Woyzeck represents one of the earliest examples of the anti-hero. Written by a twenty-four year old more than one hundred years before Willy Loman stooped onto the stage, this highly theatrical play is a mini-epic about the life of a dutiful soldier who allows a crazed doctor to restrict his diet to nothing but peas. As a result, Woyzeck's deep sense of morality becomes unhinged, leading him to a disastrous and tragic end.
