Burnt by the Sun – National Theatre – Review
April 1, 2009
The publicity for ‘Burnt by the Sun’ speaks of the Great Terror which took place in Russia towards the end of the 1930s – Stalin’s repression of all his enemies, real and imagined, which resulted in hundreds of thousands of executions, not to mention the wholesale transportation of Socially Harmful Elements to labour camps, where they were literally worked to death.
