Dmitri in the Dark - Sat, May 4, 2019

Dmitri in the Dark is a unique theatrical experience intertwining a string quartet with contemporary circus arts. First, dedicate your attention to Dmitri Shostakovich's beautiful and scathing String Quartet No. 6, performed in nearly complete darkness. Then listen again as actors, acrobats, and aerialists weave the composition into a story.
