The time has come to celebrate the season. And to put that Chekhov training to work.

Join Miles at Smith Street Stage's Mid-Winter Wassail, where he will be featured in one of Chekhov's comedies (who knew?): The Bear (directed by Madeline Barasch). Reuniting with his partner in literal and proverbial crime, Natalie Walker, he will play the loyal servant to her weeping, woebegone widow. Their world and bodies are turned upside down when a brute (Jason Loughlin) shows up at the estate, insisting that the deceased husband owes him money. The pre-revolutionary Russian version of hilarity ensues.

Based in Brooklyn, Smith Street Stage is committed to telling classic stories in contemporary ways. The Mid-Winter Wassail (complete with three shorts, a band, open bar, and more) is not only fun, it is an important fundraiser for the company.

The event kicks off at 7pm on 12/17. Tickets can be purchased here. The Genius Space Event Space. (84 4th St., Brooklyn, NY).

Blessings.
