Playing @
Kraine Theatre
85 E 4th St, New York, NY 10003
The Duchess of LES is a story about love, betrayal of the Code and the power of temptation. Simon, a young breakdancer, falls in love with her psychotic brother's wife. The play is set in the 1980s in Little Ukraine, NYC, the edgy, grungy side of NY that encapsulates all the broken dreams and grand hopes that make America America. It is home to as many as 60,000 Ukrainian immigrants and their progeny living within a few square blocks—along with the great mosaic of people from around the world. From the synth arpeggios to the driving drum beats, the music will transport you back to the 80s. So put on your leg warmers and your Members Only jacket and get ready to laugh and dance to the sounds of the 80s, as imagined by AI.
