Buran Theatre is an award-winning ensemble of disparate multidisciplinary and intergenerational artists who joyfully and anarchically reconfigure narrative, form, production, gender, and genre to develop ambitious theatre productions. Buran's work embraces the absurd, the chaotic, the unknown, the impossible and the surreal with prism-like narrative complexity. Major works include Money Buckets! (MET Ensemble, Kansas City, MO), The House of Fitzcarraldo (The Brick, Brooklyn; national tour), Nightmares: A Demonstration of the Sublime (The Brick, Brooklyn; national tour), Magic Bullets (Incubator Arts Project, NYC), Erik Satie / If I Told Him / Erik Satie (w/ Target Margin Theater @ The Bushwick Starr, Brooklyn), and Mammoth (The Brick). In November & December, Buran will tour their original production Mammoth to Highways Performance Space in Los Angeles, CA and Tricklock Company in Albuquerque, NM.
