DONBAS

About the show

'What do you do when your brother is trying to kill you, Ivan?’ Newly released from a Russian prison, Sashko comes home to a father determined to keep him safe as the world unravels. Ivan’s chasing Vera, Vera’s chasing the perfect Claudia Schiffer blonde – and overhead, in Ukrainian skies, the planes are getting closer. From the winner of Theatre503’s International Playwriting Award, Olga Braga’s searing and darkly funny debut Donbas asks how people keep living and dreaming, even in uncertain times. Donbas is a Theatre503, Good Chance and 45North Production in association with Seventh Productions.
