The Russian Play

by Hannah Moscovitch

MARCH 16 – 21, 2010

Ah! the life of a Russian peasant! – as seen through the eyes of Canada’s hottest young playwright. Set amidst the decay of Stalinist Russia, The Russian Play recounts the dark and comic tale of a Russian peasant girl named Sonya, the foolish mistakes of her youth and the story of the love affair that led to her ruin. This award-winning gem is a contemporary take on an old-fashioned love story and a moving study of the nature of poverty, oppression and love.

 "Colombe Demers as Sonya delivers a phenomenal performance" Halifax Herald

"Highly recommended…incredibly powerful with breathtaking emotion…A must-see" Toronto Star

"It’s that rarest of all theatrical experiments: a clever satire with a beating heart." Globe and Mail
