STAGE TUBE: The Flying Karamazov Brothers Return to Minetta Lane with 4PLAY

By:


The Flying Karamazov Brothers returned in triumph to the Minetta Lane Theatre for an open-ended engagement in their hit show 4PLAY beginning Thursday, July 22. The show officially opened Monday, August 9 at 7pm. This follows the show's limited engagement that played the Minetta Lane February 8 through March 7 to great critical acclaim and popular success (and not a few pies in the face!). The Minetta Lane Theatre is located at 18 Minetta Lane between Sixth Avenue and MacDougal Street.

A unique blend of music, comedy, dance, theater, and juggling that is sure to dazzle young and old alike, 4PLAY features The Flying Karamazov Brothers, New York's favorite multi-faceted new-vaudevillians at the apex of their ambidextrous and alliterative ability. Come watch the Flying K's as they prove with each performance that chaos and unexpected events in our lives are the best part of being human. Four Brothers, For Everyone, 4PLAY.

The audience is invited to bring objects to the theater for the Karamazovs to keep airborne in a real challenge that ends either with a pie in the face or a standing ovation, making each show a unique experience and sometimes a messy one. This exuberant and hilarious off-Broadway event is full of charming, fast-paced virtuosity and fun as the four brothers, master practitioners of cheap theatrics, juggle ‘til they drop. Their method combines skills of considerable breadth and depth in a work that is kaleidoscopic, passionate and not one bit silly (ok, maybe a little). The objects, the musical instruments (traditional and invented), and their own bodies combine to make a fresh and compelling evening. This show is made for everyone-kids, adults, students, tourists, theatre goers, the theatre wary, pseudo-intellectuals, dopes, geeks, the upper and lower crust, and even politicians.
