Based on characters from Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812 is an electro-pop opera that tells the story of Natasha Rostova, who arrives in Moscow to await the return of her fiancé from the front lines. When she falls under the spell of the city’s most charming rogue, it is up to the disillusioned Pierre to pick up the pieces of her reputation. The show plays at a specially created venue called Kazino, located in a tent on 45th Street in the theater district.
