About Theatrical play The Dangers of Tobacco in New York
Three nights only — every ticket helps us open our doors!
Theater 86 is thrilled to welcome you back into our new home for the next step in this exciting chapter: Anton Chekhov's wickedly funny The Dangers of Tobacco.
A nervous lecturer steps before an audience to deliver a perfectly respectable talk. Under the watchful eye of his formidable wife, he promptly loses the subject, his composure, and very nearly his mind.
In Aleksey Burago's bold two-actor interpretation, a lecture gone wrong becomes a hilarious and unexpectedly moving confession about marriage, misery, and the longing to be free.
Featuring acclaimed performers Tom Schubert and Elena Mindlina, with opera singing and live violin, this intimate theatrical pressure cooker is absurd, explosive, musical, and unmistakably human.
Three nights only. All proceeds from these performances go directly toward furthering Theater 86's buildout of our new home!
