Once Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest
$20-$45
This powerful American drama explores the beauty and danger of being a free spirit in a closed system. Randle McMurphy charms his way onto a psych ward thinking it’s surely the easy way to serve out a six-month prison term. There he encounters Nurse Ratched, a disciplined and extremely focused agent of authority. Randle uses his charisma and humor to breathe life into the ward and lead the other patients into open rebellion. But McMurphy’s revolution against Nurse Ratched and everything she stands for quickly turns from sport to a fierce power struggle—with shattering results. Contains profanity, sexual situations, and emotional violence. Recommended for ages 16 and up.
