'The Border’ - a Russian anti-war self-confession wins Best of The Actor’s Company award!
West Hollywood, California – an extended limited run of The Border at The Actor’s Company is on the horizon. The one-person show is presented by non-profit theater company RimoVision Group, starring Misha Suvorov and is a part of ‘Theatre against the war’ movement.
‘The Border’ is a dramatic poem crafted using the auto fictional method. The plot unfolds during the full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine. The main character, a young man from Moscow, opposes the war. To avoid becoming a victim of repression, he is forced to leave the country. However, his plans are shattered when he learns that his mother, who lives in a war zone on the border of two countries, is suffering a heart attack. Amidst the bombings, the characters are forced to find ways of reconciliation and forgiveness in war and dictatorship.
