SYNOPSIS:
What is the music of jealousy? Of obsession? Of desire? Award-winning playwright Jennifer Fawcett (Apples in Winter, Birth Witches) returns to Riverside with an adaptation that weaves together Leo Tolstoy’s haunting novella with the music of Ludwig van Beethoven and Leoš Janáček. Recorded by four-time Grammy Award winning producer and recording engineer Jesse Lewis. An audio-immersive theatrical experience you won’t soon forget.
