Gogol Project

 by Kitty Felde based on the short stories of Nikolai Gogol
directed by Sean T. Cawelti

 

Welcome to Nevsky Prospect! With a script by playwright and KPCC journalist Kitty Felde, an original score and songs by indie musician Ego Plum, and Rogue Artists Ensemble's signature mix of live actors, puppetry, masks and digital projection, three of Nikolai Gogol's most famous short stories - Diary of a Madman, The Overcoat and The Nose - will come to "Hyper-theatrical " life this fall. Directed by Sean T. Cawelti, Gogol Project will open at the Bootleg Theater on September 25. Two low-priced previews take place September 19 and 20.

Gogol Project will catapult audiences into the grotesque and whimsical world of Nikolai Gogol’s St. Petersburg neighborhood of Nevsky Prospect. A man chronicles his descent into madness. A poor postal clerk’s life is turned upside-down by the overcoat he sacrificed to obtain. A Very Important Person wakes up one day to discover his nose is missing, only to find out his nose is now a government official - and the nose outranks him!
