JCA Signature Series presents the legendary theatre creator Dmitry Krymov! FREE

Dmitry Krymov has been hailed as “one of the world’s finest theatermakers” (New York Times). When the Russian government invaded Ukraine, Mr. Krymov publicly stated his opposition to the war, knowing it meant exile, and he and his wife Inna took up residence in New York City, where he founded the Krymov Lab NYC.

Prior to his exile, Dmitry Krymov designed more than eighty plays for leading Russian theatres. Since 1990, he has dedicated himself entirely to painting, graphics, stage design, and theatre directing. Previously a professor at the Russian Academy of Theatre Arts and the Head of the Experimental Theatre Project of the Union Theatre of Europe, Krymov is a recipient of Stanislavski (2006), Turandot (2007 and 2009) and Golden Mask (2008) awards, the highest theatre achievement awards in Russia. In 2007 he received the highest award for stage design of the Russian Pavilion at the Prague Quadrennial. A Midsummer Night’s Dream (As You Like It) was commissioned for the 2012 World Shakespeare Festival and won the Bank of Scotland Herald Angel Award at the 2012 Edinburgh International Festival.

Krymov continues his work in NYC and in other locations worldwide.
