The year is 1943 and Bulgaria has just told Hitler where to stick it. Europe’s major powers are at war and King Boris III must choose a side or be swept away. A raucous and poignant tale in which a bunch of underdogs use every trick in the book to outwit the Nazis and save nearly 50,000 Jewish lives.

Award-winning Out Of The Forest Theatre’s irreverent comedy - featuring live music inspired by Bulgarian and Jewish folk tunes - tells the incredible true story that the world forgot.

This is a unique story in 20th century European history. Prepare to be enthralled as The Brief Life & Mysterious Death of Boris III, King of Bulgaria weaves a tale that delves deep into history, leaving you both informed and spellbound.

This edition was published to coincide with the initial run at New York City’s Brits Off Broadway festival at 59E59 Theatre in May 2024, before the show toured the UK in June 2024.
