  • ND resident Sarah Gancher’s RUSSIAN TROLL FARM: A WORKPLACE COMEDY is a shapeshifting, kaleidoscopic comedy set in Saint Petersburg’s infamous Internet Research Agency during the runup to the 2016 election. It is wild, hilarious, terrifying, and almost too timely. This is a story that needs to be seen before election day. @sarahgancher is working with director/designer @jay_mannnn and director/dramaturg @elizabethkwilliamson to create an online version of the play—a site-specific performance for the internet. It will use multimedia design, zoom, twitter, online video game design, and old-fashioned puppetry to create a totally new hybrid of live theater and film. Premieres online via the Arkansas New Play Festival on August 28 at 8pm Eastern/7pm Central and will be available for encore viewings through Tuesday, September 1. See link in bio for tickets and details!
