Revisor is a dance/theatre performance work featuring eight to ten actors in voice-over and eight dancers performing live, based on Inspector General by Nikolai Gogol. Farce is only one of the aspects of the piece: the production will freely adapt the play’s archetypal plot to exploit themes such as corruption, deception and the possibilities of a sudden reversal. Theatre artist Jonathon Young will adapt Inspector General and also write new text to position the play within a contemporary context and Crystal Pite will choreograph and direct. Revisor will be built on two previous projects that Young and Pite have created together: Betroffenheit and The Statement.
120 minutes (no intermission)
