A Day in Hollywood / A Night in the Ukraine
Synopsis
A Day in Hollywood / A Night in the Ukraine weaves together two distinct acts. The first act, “A Day in Hollywood,” pays homage to the golden era of cinema. And the second act, “A Night in the Ukraine,” is a farcical parody of a Chekhov play, in the style of Marx Bros. A Day in Hollywood / A Night in the Ukraine is a unique blend of nostalgia, comedy, and a touch of the unexpected.
