The Gold Rush
The Gold Rush is a world-premiere adaptation of Charlie Chaplin’s 1923 silent film classic, brought to the Synetic Theater stage in the company’s signature physical-theater style. Continuing Synetic’s ongoing exploration of silent cinema—following the success of last season’s The Immigrant—this production turns a story of a lone prospector chasing fortune in the Klondike gold fields into a witty, warm, and determined comedy. Set against a modern backdrop of get-rich-quick culture, the show promises loads of physical humor and a timeless commentary on ambition and resilience.
