In autumn 2016, I pitched an idea to the BL to create a contemporary iteration of the revolutionary recreations that took place on the anniversaries of the Russian Revolution between 1918-1920. The BL followed up on the idea recruiting an immersive theatre company, Teatro Vivo, and an arts collective, Dash, to coordinate the activities. I have participated since then as an academic advisor, reading scripts, meeting periodically with the project partners in London and making suggestions about culturally specific texts, objects, and ideas that might be included in the performance. I will also give a lecture to open the event on the 23 June.
