THE IDEALIST to Open at Brighton Fringe on May 4

The Idealist is coming to the Brighton Fringe and to London. Based on true events, The Idealist follows the story of Antti Penttinen, a Finnish idealist who sets off for Stalinist Russia to pursue his dreams of contributing to communism and changing the world through song. Antti is soon confronted with a society rift with distrust. He struggles with his naïve idealism in a reality which is sinking into darkness. Set in the 1930s, The Idealist is an absurdist play about dictatorship, censorship, oppression and the truth about dolphins.

Odd Stumble is a young collective of emerging International Artists based in London. Through the use of improvisation the company produces new and experimental work with an absurd edge.
