March 6-7 at 8pm and March 8 at 7pm
UKSUS, the latest chamber opera by Erling Wold, is an autobiography of Daniil Kharms and the OBERIU in the Soviet Union of the 1930s, a narrative told through their stories and poems, brief and absurd. The OBERIU - The Association for Real Art - maintained their love of words and nonsensical art even through the deprivations of the Nazi siege of Leningrad and to their deaths in Stalin's Great Purge.
Kharms was well known as a writer of books for children, even though he hated children and wrote fantasies of their painful deaths. His adult works were lost for decades but were rediscovered and reclaimed by a new generation of troublemaker artists who have run afoul of the authorities.
