But nothing is quite as it seems.
The hit play from contemporary British playwright Sam Holcroft (National Theatre's Rules for Living) marks Thanos' mainstage directorial debut and sees Yalin Ozucelik (Sami In Paradise, Ensemble's Uncle Vanya) and Rose Riley (The Glass Menagerie) return to Belvoir St Theatre, alongside Eden Falk (And Then There Were None) and Faisal Hamza (Sydney Theatre Company's The Talented Mr. Ripley).
Under the guise of a wedding, guests will watch an illegal underground performance.
Adem's a mechanic who's written a play and naively submitted it for consideration. He's called to the arts council by a bureaucrat, Čelik, who suspects Adem has potential - if only he can learn to write in the state-approved, patriotic way, instead of telling uncomfortable truths.
Together with his new assistant Mei and national playwriting treasure Bax, Čelik takes his new protégé through a crash-course in how to write a celebrated play for the national stage…
Thanos' adaptation of A Mirror follows the play's acclaimed 2023 premiere at the Almeida Theatre, London, and its West End transfer to the Trafalgar Theatre in early 2024.
A riveting, unpredictable ride filled with twists and turns, this gripping exploration of art versus power is not to be missed.
