“God gives grace to the dead,” says Raskolnikov (Aubrey Deeker), again and again. Though he does not believe in God, does not believe in grace, and has no idea what it’s like to be dead, it is his mantra – the one he chants to ward off his past. Intense, fierce, nearly hallucinatory, Round House’s Crime and Punishment is one man’s inward-gazing, reflective, reflexive journey through hell.
