Noteworthy Attributes

In the broadway performance which ran from late 2016-2017, the audience is oriented in a way in which they are surrounded by or "in the house" in Moscow. Set designer Mimi Lien reconstructed elements of the theatre in order to make this possible, and include the audience to the fullest extent.
