TCHEKOV AT THE HOUSE OF SPECIAL PURPOSE Comes to La Mama Courthouse
The Reds once the powerless now the powerful. The Whites once absolute rulers now the powerless. The former Tsar and his family are imprisoned by the Bolsheviks in a provincial house where the Romanov girls perform Chekhov to pass the time under house arrest. Running from 28 August to 8 September at La Mama Courthouse, Tchekov at The House of Special Purpose written by AWGIE nominee R.Johns and Directed by Green Room Award Winner Alex Menglet , poses what may have happened in this last house - of existential chaos, youth versus age, hope versus paranoia, and love versus fear.
