Into theater and love a quirky romance? This Sunday the Mayakovsky Theater will host "Constellations," an award-winning play from the Moscow English Theater.
The 7th production by the company, "Constellations" is an intellectual drama about love found and lost. The chance encounter of a beekeeper and an academic in early universe cosmology triggers a series of events that defy the boundaries of the world we know. The romantic journey explores the possibilities of relationships, choice and destiny.
"Constellations," which has played on Broadway and in London's West End, won the Evening Standard Best Play Award 2012. The play is currently on repertory at the Mayakovsky Theater and will return in the autumn, so you can catch it again with friends in a few months.
Moscow English Theater is a unique creative project that brings English-language plays to the stage in Moscow. "Constellations" is a Moscow premiere and stars a professional cast including Jonathan Bex and Emma Dallow.

A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
