What if they went to Moscow?
Conceived and directed by Christiane Jatahy
Based on the text Three Sisters by Anton Chekhov
BAM DEBUT
Two audiences arrive: one starts at the BAM Fisher, the other at BAM Rose Cinemas. Both see the same performance, but through two very different lenses: theater and film, created and transmitted live. Then, cut. Intermission. The audiences switch places.
In this lush production from Brazilian director Christiane Jatahy, a single story creates two worlds. Across stage and screen, What if they went to Moscow? reveals new possibilities in storytelling, casting the viewer as an active participant in interpretation.
