The scene is a mental hospital. The narrator is a half-blooded Indian, a care worker named Bromden, who pretends to be a deaf-mute. However, the real protagonist of the play is the life-giving Randle Patrick McMurphy. A sympathy develops between the inmate, who feigns madness, and the mute, big-bodied Indian. The new patient defies the powers that be, Nurse Ratched, who dominates the apathy of patients who refuse to engage in hopeless combat.
The Cuckoo's Nest is a bible of indifference and madcap anarchy that has made novelist Ken Kesey a symbol of the Beat Generation and its unbridled desire for freedom.
Length of performance: 2 hours 55 minutes (including intermission)
