Dead Souls

As the last premiere of this year, the Berlin Volksbühne at Rosa-Luxemburg-Platz on December 30th will stage Gogol's "Dead Souls" on stage. The piece co-produced with the "Teatr Kreatur" is based on the eponymous novel Gogols. The production comes from Andrej Woron, head of the Teatr Kreatur, who also designed the stage and costumes. Gogol's novel tells the story of the Russian nobleman Chichikov, who buys deceased serfs, but who are still on the state tax lists, so that their owners must continue to pay taxes for them.
