The Trial of Ubu is a savage comedy that interrogates the assumptions of a Court as it struggles to deal with defendants who are not only opposed to the morality of law, but exist in a different moral dimension altogether.

Simon Stephens' virtuosic satire examines the often absurd legal wrangling of the international justice system. His previous plays include Punk Rock (Lyric Hammersmith/Royal Exchange), Wastwater (Royal Court), Harper Regan (National Theatre) and the Olivier Award winning Best New Play On the Shore of the Wide World (National Theatre/Royal Exchange).

Katie Mitchell returns to Hampstead Theatre following the sell out run of small hours. Mitchell reunites with Stephens after their critically acclaimed Wastwater at the Royal Court. Her recent work includes After Dido (ENO/Young Vic), Pains of Youth, ...some trace of her, Waves, Three Sisters and The Seagull (National Theatre).
