Getting ANTsy about Russia.
We are living in a supremely bizarre time. Naturally, this calls for supremely bizarre theatre (art imitates life or something).
Miles is teaming back up with director Katie Lindsay (Harry and the Thief) at Ars Nova's ANT Fest 2017 to bring you Red Emma & The Mad Monk. Written by Alexis Roblan, this Russo-American cabaret follows anarchy's Emma Goldman and historic mythology's Rasputin on a journey to the past (tell me you get this reference) and back to the future, via Twitter.
As is his duty in 2017, Miles is playing a slew of problematic white men: Modest Stein (real anarchist), Henry Clay Frick (real capitalist), and Vladislav Surkov (real propagandist).
The show is Friday 6/16 at 7pm. Tickets are $15 here or $20 at the door. Ars Nova. (511 W. 54th St., NY, NY).
