Taking the Stage
Over two days of this “mini-festival of British drama,” 11 Ukrainian theater groups will compete with 20-minute excerpts from their future plays. The money from ticket sales will fund the production of a play selected by an audience vote. Two additional winners will be selected by a Ukrainian-British jury. For the third year in a row this “Taking the Stage” project motivates Ukrainian theaters and directors to create their original versions of British plays from Shakespeare’s “Macbeth” to Ian McEwan’s “Amsterdam.”
Taking the Stage. Dovzhenko Center (1 Vasylkivska St., Stage 6). Oct. 12, 13. 6 p.m. One-day entrance – Hr 70

The couple made the film at their home in Ascot, England from amateur footage to serve as a video supplement to Lennon’s “Imagine” music album along with a few songs from Ono’s “Fly.” The film also features several notable people, such as Andy Warhol, Miles Davis, and George Harrison.
