Theatre Novi Most cordially invites you to a free staged reading of Dancing on the Edge, a new play about the legendary American dancer Isadora Duncan and her tumultuous marriage to the famous Russian poet Sergei Esenin. Set in the wake of the Russian Revolution, Dancing on the Edge brings to life two mythic characters whose outsized artistic and spiritual passions clashed tragi-comically with Russian society, the American dream, and each other.
New York-based playwright Adam Kraar has constructed a uniquely bilingual play in English and Russian. The staged reading will be directed by Vladimir Rovinsky and features Lisa Channer as Isadora Duncan, Sasha Andreev as Sergei Esenin, and Sergey Nagorny & Aleksandra Glinka in multiple roles.
The free readings will take place:
Sunday, August 11th at 7:30pm
Unison Learning Center
68 Mountain Rest Rd., New Paltz, NY
Monday, August 12th at 8pm
92nd Street Y, Buttenweiser Hall
