AUDITIONS for Little Tragedies: Mozart and Salieri & The Stone Guest!!! – read more...

Michaelmas Week 6 show in the stunning Corpus Chapel is looking for a cast! Do you want to fight on swords and die as a vengeful Spanish grand? Or execute divine justice as a dreadful funerary statue? Or, perhaps, playing Requiem and being poisoned by Salieri speaks to you? In the plays that will appear in the double bill of Pushkin's Little Tragedies, you can find: an eternal conflict of a jealous hard-working craftsman with a careless genius, a life in pursuit of eros that culminates in a well-deserved, yet tragically picturesque death, poison in a glass of wine, and the Stone Guest statue coming alive to take revenge on his murderer. This is Russian drama at its finest, created by a poet under censorship, at the height of his creative glory.

• Sat 10th Oct, 13:00–13:30, Trinity College Frazer Room
