THE RASPUTIN AFFAIR

About the show

WORLD PREMIERE St Petersburg. Winter. 1916. A group of like-minded individuals gather with a plate of pink poisoned cupcakes and a shared aim: to rid the world of one of history’s most despised characters – the mad monk Rasputin. There’s just one problem: Rasputin claims to be a messenger of God. Will Felix, Dimitri, Vlad and Minya do away with their wily nemesis once and for all… or will they all die trying? This brilliant new work from the pen of Kate Mulvany is wildly imaginative, outrageous and side-splitting. The Rasputin Affair was developed with the support of Playwriting Australia at the National Script Workshop 2016.
