SYNOPSIS
Vienna’s English Theatre Academy presents the Final Show of VETA’s Class of 2022
VETA is the only fully professional English-language acting school in Austria. Join our talented, international drama students presenting this professional full-scale theatre production as highlight of their two-year training.
Conor has the same dream every night, ever since his mother first fell ill. But tonight is different. Tonight, when he wakes, there’s a visitor at his window. This ancient, elemental force of nature demands the most dangerous thing of all – the truth. Conor must find a way to tell his story and face his deepest fears.
Patrick Ness’s extraordinary and heartbreaking novel was first adapted in 2018 for the Old Vic Theatre and since then, A Monster Calls continues to weave its stunning story of love, loss and courage.
