Atlas Weekend Line-Up

The Embassy of the Czech Republic presents the Teatro Novogo Fronta in
DYBBUK

Czech-Russian physical theater company Teatr Novogo Fronta in collaboration with the Embassy of the Czech Republic presents their Washington debut of Dybbuk, Saturday, October 14, 2006 at 8:00 PM at Washington’s newest theatrical venue, the Atlas Performing Arts Center.
Freely drawn from Yiddish legend, Dybbuk is a powerful crescendo of visual incantations evoking the life of a disquieted mind. Using the body’s language, the actor expresses the soul’s changes. This solo performance is Irina E. Andreeva’s magisterial artistic confession.

A four-day workshop will be held from October 16-19, and can be booked through the Capital Fringe Festival at www.capitalfringe.org . The cost for the 4-day workshop is $75 if purchased before Sept. 22, and $100 after that date.
Presented by Teatr Novogo Fronta in collaboration with the Embassy of the Czech Republic
