UTOPIA
By Mikhail Durnenkov
Translated by Sasha Dugdale
Directed by Andreas Andreou
November 15–21, Iseman Theater
In the early days of post-Soviet Russia, a former Moscow barman is offered the chance to resurrect his beloved Utopia. As he recruits his estranged wife and son to help restore the shabby nightclub, the question looms: once lost, can paradise ever be found again?
IS GOD IS
By Aleshea Harris
Directed by Jasmine Brooks

Closing the season will be Aleshea Harris’s award-winning play Is God Is, directed by Jasmine Brooks.
