" In "In Paris," a story of love and loss in 1930s Paris, Mikhail Baryshnikov mesmerized the audience at The Broad Stage in Santa Monica in his role as an actor, using gesture, movement, words and a few dance flourishes, too.
Spoken in French and Russian, and subtitled in English, the production's U.S. premiere featured Baryshnikov as a Russian General in the French capitol. Anna Sinyakina played his love interest, painting a compelling and poignant portrait.
For the multi-media adaptation of Nobel Prize winner Ivan Bunin's short story, set designer and director Dmitry Krymov created a stunning visual environment to bring the play into the twenty-first century".
