Beowulf, acrobats, Steel Magnolias, Prometheus, and immigrants' journeys across time and the world are among the plays to watch the next few weeks in Philly.
We hear about immigrants as they are on the move — on a bus from Texas’ southern border, on a boat that capsizes in the Mediterranean, arriving by air from Afghanistan or Ukraine.
It’s 1991 in Kyiv, Ukraine, as the former Soviet Union loosens its grip on satellite states and opens the door for people, especially Jewish people, to leave.Three generations of a Jewish family grapple with the choice. There’s a grandfather, a married couple, and their two children — a son, Borya, 25, and a daughter, Anya, 17.
Howard describes his character “as a smooth talker. He’s the black sheep of the family.” Borya becomes a wheeler-dealer in the Russian Mafia, able to bring home coveted black-market items, such as toilet paper and flowers. Wednesday performances and matinees on Saturday and Sunday are followed by discussions with speakers. Among them are Satie, the playwright, on Feb. 4; Ilya Knizhnik, director of partnership at Ukraine TrustChain on Feb. 5; and Roman Petyk, chairman of the Ukrainian Community Foundation on Feb. 12.
