About
Money, marriage, deception — and a family determined to keep up appearances.
Get ready for a deliciously chaotic comedy where everyone wants something, nobody tells the whole truth, and a perfectly respectable evening quickly spirals out of control. Packed with outrageous characters, sharp humour, unexpected twists and plenty of theatrical fun, this is a fast-paced farce about love, ambition and the lengths we go to for a better life.
Come for the laughs, stay for the mayhem — and discover that when money is tight, anything can happen!
Performed in Russian with synchronised English translation via earphones, this production welcomes both Russian-speaking and English-speaking audiences. People who need translation (earphones) should choose seats in the back row (row K).
Directed by Dasha Volga, an internationally acclaimed Russian-Ukrainian actor and independent film director. Since moving to New Zealand in 2022, Dasha has joined the cast of The Brokenwood Mysteries and founded LiveTheatré, a community theatre group where she coaches actors and directs productions.
