Set against the backdrop of the 1917 Russian Revolution, this extraordinary play by Vladimir Mayakovsky portrays a group of workers and others on an ark in the aftermath of a destructive deluge. The allegorical parody of the biblical tale of Noah is a major example of the Russian avant-garde, and is now recreated by Chiten and the music band Kukangendai. Director Motoi Miura employs his acclaimed approach of dismantling and reconstructing the original text to explore its essence anew, while Kukangendai is renowned for its use of arbitrary, irregular sounds. Mayakovsky’s 100-year-old play of “clean” and “unclean” social classes is provocatively reinvented for contemporary audiences.
