Voyage Theater Company presents a<\/span>\u00a0staged reading of<\/span><\/p>\n

UNBEARABLY LONG EMBRACES<\/b><\/p>\n

By Ivan V<\/span>yrypaev
<\/span>Translated by Cazimir Liske<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Voyage Theater Company\u2019s PARTS UNKNOWN Play Reading Series continues with a staged reading of\u00a0<\/span>UNBEARABLY LONG EMBRACES<\/b>\u00a0by celebrated Russian playwright Ivan Viripaev, translated by Cazimir Liske.<\/span><\/p>\n

UNBEARABLY LONG EMBRACES<\/b>\u00a0is the story of four people at an existential crossroad. Charlie and Monica thought that their marriage would last forever. But the secrets they keep from each other are too much to bear. They are caught in a downward spiral that reaches from New York to Berlin and across the cosmos, taking their lovers with them.<\/span><\/p>\n

With razor-sharp dialogue and a boldly experimental structure, Viripaev streams the inner life of the characters via a little blue dot that appears to them just when they are on the brink of annihilation. The blue dot claims to be the voice of the universe, but why is the advice it offers so disconcerting?<\/span><\/p>\n

O<\/span>ne of the pre-eminent talents currently shaping contemporary theater in Russia,\u00a0<\/span>Ivan Viripaev<\/b>\u00a0is also the founder of the theater group Play Space and artistic director of the Praktika Theater in Moscow.<\/span><\/p>\n

Translator\u00a0<\/span>Cazimir Liske<\/b>\u00a0is a graduate of Dartmouth College and trained at the Moscow Art Theatre School. Other collaborations with Viripaev include\u00a0<\/span>Delhi Dance<\/span><\/i>,\u00a0<\/span>Sugar<\/span><\/i>, and\u00a0<\/span>Grace and Grit<\/span><\/i>. Liske is a faculty member of the Moscow Art Theatre School.<\/span><\/p>\n
