Vassa by Maxim Gorky, adapted by Mike Bartlett

Directed by Katie Bonna

“There are no miracles in this world. Only those we make for ourselves.”

It's 8 a.m. and a revolt is underway. The father is dying. The son is spying. The wife is cheating. The uncle is stealing. The mother is scheming. The dynasty is crumbling. One house. One fortune. One victor.

Maxim Gorky's savagely funny play Vassa Zheleznova was first published in 1910.

This production is brought to you by the Actor Performer Training MA/MFA at Rose Bruford College, dedicated to fostering a culture of artistic excellence and empowering students to become leaders in their fields.
