ARTEL's Kharmful Charms of Daniil Kharms


( 02/19/2010 - 04/17/2010 )

" When you come to see us, forget everything that you have been used to seeing in all other theatres. Perhaps much of it will seem absurd." - OBERIU, 1928 After a riotous oversold presentation of the workshop production last spring, ARTEL - a mad-gang of artisanal scientists comprising the underground American Russian Theatre Ensemble Laboratory - brings Daniil Kharms back with a vengeance! And he is more charming, macabre, and scintillating than ever! Kharmful Charms of Daniil Kharms is an original decadent comedy, illogically formulated from Russian Surrealist and Absurdist motifs, constructed as an evening of not-so-innocent commotions and antics, vignettes and dreamlike incidents, all set to a rousing live musical score. Notes: Arrive early for Amuse-Um installations, instant happenings, surprise disappearances, musical ambushes, and eruptions of sound poetry.
