DESCRIPTION

The Death of Rasputin is a debaucherous satire which unfolds as a party and brings to life the espionage and mysticism surrounding Rasputin and the Romanovs at the twilight of their rule. Our original script is a tour-de-force in which each character’s egomaniacal grasp for power leads to their downfall. The story features heavy dialogue, contemporary dance, slavic dancing and audience participation. Ideal candidates will have strong skills in acting and dance, and a passion for devising new work. Experience in playing musical instruments and singing is a plus. Some roles may require partial nudity.
