Descend into the bunker-like setting of Dupont Underground with Alliance for New Music-Theatre to witness the last surviving member of a Ukrainian military band sheltering from Russian bombardment below the steelworks of Mariupol in 2022. For 11 performances in January 2026, Inna Goncharova’s new play presents a vivid depiction of the terrible essence of war, while the spooky, echoey space of Dupont Underground provides an eerie parallel for the trumpeter's subterranean refuge. This is a total immersive experience.Directed by world-celebrated Hungarian director János Szász with Michael Kevin Darnall and Lise Bruneau, this production resonates with haunting music by trumpeter Kevin McKee and an ensemble of Ukrainian vocal artists. Building on two readings offered last spring, this fully-staged experience is the latest event in our ongoing commitment to the writings of Ukrainian playwrights, bringing the far-away suffering of the Ukrainians up close during the fourth year of the Russian invasion.
Special events include:
January 22: Opening Night Celebration and Conversation with Representatives of the Ukrainian Embassy
January 23: "What is it to be an Ally?" post-show conversation with friends from the Czech Embassy
January 26: Industry Night. "What is The Role of The Artist in Precarious Times?"
Jan 31 at 2:00 and 8:00: United Help Ukraine "How Can We Support Ukraine?"
