Company: Artemis is Burning
Production: The Death of Rasputin

Project Description:
The Death of Rasputin is a debaucherous satire which unfolds as a party and brings to life the espionage and mysticism surrounding Rasputin and the Romanovs at the twilight of their rule. Our original script is a tour-de-force in which each character’s egomaniacal grasp for power leads to their downfall.

Experience in playing musical instruments and singing is a plus. Some roles may require partial nudity.
