DESCRIPTION
Rich in magical surprises and mechanical ingenuity, inventive puppetry and exuberant folk music, Tea at the Palace is a sumptuous retelling of two stories told in old Russia about justice, humanity and compassion. In the first, a peasant finds a samovar in his field, but when he uses it to make tea “just like the Tsar” he is charged with treason. In the second, the Tsar is introduced to a wise and intriguing peasant girl, which scandalizes the courtiers who plot to thwart their friendship. Full of riddles, ritual and humour this play is both relevant and enchanting.
Directed by Sharon Weisbaum, designed, built and performed by Ann Powell and David Powell, music created by David Anderson and Nuno Cristo.[/vc_column_text][vc_video max_width=”500″ link=”https://youtu.be/MyzurVGW5fA”][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row]
