PUSHKIN'S LITTLE TRAGEDIES
Low time commitment & high drama!
Two obsessions. One evening. Envy and passion. Pushkin's Little Tragedies are psychological duels where a single idea becomes a world, and a world is brought to ruin by a single, fatal choice.
This double bill presents two of his most exciting studies:
- Mozart and Salieri – an eternal conflict of a jealous hard-working craftsman with a careless genius. Poison in a glass of wine.
- The Stone Guest – a life in pursuit of eros that culminates in a well-deserved, yet tragically picturesque death. Madrid, passion, duels and a ghost from Hell.
- Sat 16th May, 15:00–Sun 17th May, 12:00, Frazer Room, Trinity College

Does being part of the core prod team in a comedy show involving evil twins, the Voice of God (though Evil Twin may or may not be full of it), and the real fifth Beatle sound appealing? It does and you know it does.
