The fifteenth session of Read Theatre with Science takes place on 22 November, at 6 p.m. at Marionet. The text to be read is the play “Pigeon“, by Tommy Smith, translated in the scope of the Collaborative Translation Project.
The original text, as well as the referred translation, are available for consultation or loan at the Documentation Centre in Performing Arts and Science.
«Set in depression-era New York City and Stalinist Russia, “Pigeon” follows the exploits of Leon Theremin, Soviet inventor and father of electronic music. When Theremin marries a whip-smart black prima ballerina, their expatriate romance shocks society and attracts the looming shadow of foreign terror.»
