Sheldon Patinkin’s IVANOV– A Tragical Farce

Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009

Greetings friends!

Our hugely anticipated show, IVANOV, adapted and directed by Chicago’s own Sheldon Patinkin, is about to open!  This week we move into The Viaduct Theatre, build the set, hang the lights, try on the costumes and make the magic happen.  We open on October 1st… get your tickets now!

Ensemble members Calliope Porter, Anna Carini, Sue Redman, Jeremy Fisher, Cyd Blakewell and Ryan Martin.

Featuring eight ensemble members, this passion-filled production of a classic tale swings wildly from comedy to tragedy. In a community obsessed with gossip and greed, the brilliant Ivanov has fallen out of love with his wife and his friends and bankrupted his land, only to be dangerously attracted to the beautiful young daughter of his creditor. Chekhov’s most accessible play asks the burning question “How do you live without hope?”
