A Report to an Academy by Franz Kafka

“And so I learned things, gentlemen. Ah, one learns when one has to; one learns when one needs a way out; one learns at all costs." Report to an Academy is a one-man show produced by SCENA Theatre , directed by Gabriele Jakobi, and adapted from a short story by Franz Kafka. Robert McNamara plays Red Peter, a self-reformed ape who’s become human in order to survive. The audience serves as members of the “academy,” listening to his account of having crossed from one species to another. Show dates August 24-27 at 19:00. Show runtime is roughly one hour. #tallinnfringe2026 Please note: This show will be performed at two different theaters.
