PLOT OF THE PLAY 'THE DOUBLE'
How would you feel if someone who looked exactly like you appeared before you one day?
Someone who resembles you perfectly in physical appearance but is your complete opposite in character; someone who possesses the traits you hate and cannot tolerate, yet because of these very traits, can reach your goals much more easily than you can; someone whose place you might secretly want to take. Both your alter-ego and your enemy.
This is the first theater play adapted and directed by Emin Alper from Dostoevsky's work of the same name, 'The Double.' An original dark comedy.
