Hershey Felder Presents - Live from Florence has announced the world premiere livestream of Hershey Felder as Sergei Rachmaninoff in Anna & Sergei, a new streaming film written by and starring virtuoso pianist/performer Hershey Felder. The production will also feature soprano and actress Ekaterina Siurina as Natalia Alexandrovna Rachmaninoff and actor and master violinist Igor Polesitsky as Dr. Golitzin, with additional casting to come.
Anna & Sergei, featuring a book by Felder and direction by Felder and Stefano DeCarli, will be live streamed at 8:00 pm Eastern / 7:00 pm Central / 6:00 pm Mountain / and 5:00 pm Pacific on Sunday, MAY 16, 2021, with on-demand access available through Sunday, MAY 23. To buy tickets ($55 per household) or for more information, visit EventBrite.com.
Taking place as a memory play in the house in which Rachmaninoff died in Beverly Hills, Anna & Sergei is the story of a very strange and little-known real-life meeting between the famed Russian composer and pianist and Anna Anderson, the woman who claimed to be the Princess Anastasia, the sole surviving member of the Romanov Dynasty. Anna & Sergei will feature many of Rachmaninoff's most beloved melodies and music.
