Published 2012-01-31
Off-Broadway play Russian Transport had its opening night on January 30. Ethan Hawke, Janeane Garofalo, Natasha Lyonne, and Morgan Spector were all in attendance. The New Group production of Erika Sheffer's play is currently playing at the Acorn Theatre.
Set in the Russian-Jewish enclave of Sheepshead Bay, Brooklyn, Russian Transport is a deeply
personal tale of an immigrant couple, their two assimilated teenagers and the fierce and fiery upheaval they experience when sexy, mysterious Uncle Boris from the old country comes to stay with them for his shot at the American dream. Part family drama, part heart-pounding thriller, this debut from Erika Sheffer captures the complex and conflicting layers of striving, joy, pain and terror in one very particular immigrant experience.
