MOTHER RUSSIA by Lauren Yee:
The setting of Mother Russia is St. Petersburg, 1992: the Soviet Union has collapsed, McDonald’s has risen, and Evgeny, a young man at a loss, stumbles into a job working surveillance with his old friend Dmitri. Their target: Katya, a former pop singer with questionable allegiances and a mysterious past. As their lives riotously intertwine, Evgeny finds himself falling in love and losing his bearings, all while grappling with the taste of freedom (and fast food) along the way. Lauren Yee’s savvy, off-kilter tale of identity, espionage, and the cost of capitalism makes its New York premiere in this razor-sharp dark comedy.
Lauren Yee is an award-winning playwright, screenwriter, and librettist. Her plays include CAMBODIAN ROCK BAND, THE GREAT LEAP, CHING CHONG CHINAMAN, and KING OF THE YEES. In addition to her work on the stage, she has been a writer on: PACHINKO (Apple), INTERIOR CHINATOWN (Hulu), BILLIONS (Showtime), CLIPPED (FX), and SOUNDTRACK (Netflix).
