Russian Beauty
If you like your theatre light and fluffy, then Act Provocateur International are perhaps not the company for you. If on the other hand you are into more substantial theatre, always wonderfully acted and skillfully directed then they should be very near the top of your list of companies.
This play, written by the company Artistic Director Victor Sobchak, is set in the flat of Katya, played by Trine Thielen, as she waits anxiously by the phone for a call from her English lover, who has left to fly home.
The writing and direction give reign for Ms Thielen to display her acting skill to good effect as her story is told, of love, hope, desire, despair and her desperation to leave Mother Russia.
There was only problem with this production for me was that it was too short, but it was 45 minutes very well spent.
