“The Apotheosis of War” (1871) by Vasily Vereshchagin
This year I’m once again collaborating with Seattle’s Seagull Project Ensemble by curating a performance titled “The Dark Side of Humanity” as part of their Great Soul of Russia reading series that takes place at ACT Theatre in downtown Seattle at 7pm on Tuesday, April 10.
I’ve selected and translated three short stories (“Four Days” by Vsevolov Garshin, “Noose Ears” by Ivan Bunin, and “Ward No. 6” by Anton Chekhov) that will be directed by the Seagull Project’s artistic director, Gavin Reub.
If you live in the Seattle area, you can find out more about the performance and how to get tickets by going to: http://www.acttheatre.org/Tickets/OnStage/TheDarkSideofHumanity
