Stories of Dislocation

September 26 - October 6, 2019

An Original  Work
Conceived & Directed by Robyn Hunt 
& Developed by the Ensemble

Professor Robyn Hunt's original play utilizes interviews with immigrants whose stories of migration, of things and people left behind, and of discoveries in the new country have shaped their lives. The piece offers two very different movements: one with spoken words, and the other in silence, as the characters travel in slow tempo toward the unknown, toward the next thing, possibly even deliverance.

Black Snow

March 19-28, 2020

Written by Mikhail Bulgakov
Adapted by Keith Reddin
Directed by Steven Pearson

Keith Reddin’s adaptation of legendary Russian author Mikhail Bulgakov's 1936 novel is a semi-autobiographical account of Bulgakov's experience with the Moscow Art Theatre, headed in part by influential director Konstantin Stanislavski. In Black Snow, a writer named Sergei Maxudov is persuaded to submit his novel to the "Independent Theatre" to have it adapted for the stage, but quickly finds himself and his creation subject to the whims of the theatre's figureheads. Censored for its criticism of the Soviet government, the original novel didn't actually see publication until 1967, more than twenty-five years after Bulgakov's death.
