Emerging Artists Theatre will present The Schmidt Sisters: A Revolutionary Situation written by Rebecca Farley (book), Margo Hera (lyrics), and Blake Pilger (music), directed by Emmie D’Amico, and music directed by Kara Leigh. The staged reading takes place on September 18th 7pm and is part of the 2024 Fall Spark Theatre Festival NYC.
Performance takes place at The Chain Theatre (312 W 36th St, 3rd Floor, New York, NY, 10018) as part of The Factory Series @Chain Theatre, which provides renters with production support which may include subsidized space, rehearsal studios, and equipment and the overarching marketing, publicity, and technology enhancements for the theater.
"The Schmidt Sisters" follows Elizaveta and Ekaterina Schmidt, two young heiresses in turn-of-the-century Russia. After their late brother bestows a hefty inheritance on them, Vladimir Lenin (yes, that Lenin) sends two trusted comrades to "steal" the money, i.e. woo and marry the sisters. This show has everything: Fake marriage! Queer love! Heavy drinking! A play-within-a-play! Vladimir Lenin! Bolsheviks! Revolution! Blood! Murder! Beer!
