In partnership with The Theater at the 14th Street Y, theater maker Anna Lublina presents the world premiere of her most ambitious project to date, Бабушка | BAb(oo)shka. In this new multidisciplinary performance, Lublina invites her Russian mother and grandmother (Babushka, who was once a Russian-English translator) onstage to recount their experiences of anti-semitism in the Soviet Union, in Russian. These stories of Jewish resilience transform into scenes with English-speaking actors, dance interpretations choreographed by Elena Rose Light, and a culminating folk tale melding puppetry by Lublina with Jewish Klezmer music by Juilliard-trained composer Julia Danitz.

Created and Directed by Anna Lublina
Choreographed by Elena Rose Light
Composed by Julia Danitz
