Lyric Poetry & Drama

Dostoyevsky's monumental novel is transformed into spellbinding full cast drama by playwright David Fishelson. The Idiot centers around the kindly, childlike Prince Myshkin as he returns to the decadent social whirl of 1860s St. Petersburg. The two most beautiful, sought-after women in the town compete for his affections in a duel that grows increasingly dangerous.

An L.A. Theatre Works full cast performance featuring:

Edward Asner as General Yepanchin Kate Asner as Nastasya Filipovna Angela Bettis as Aglaya Arye Gross as Ganya Ivolgin John Kapelos as Lebedev Robert Machray as General Ivolgin/Totsky Jon Matthews as Parfyon Rogozhin Johanna McKayas Varya/Daeya Paul Mercier as Prince Sherbatsky/Denisov Laurel Moglen as Adelaida Michael Rivkin as Eugene Radomsky Peggy Roeder as Mrs. Yepanchin/Mrs. Ivolgin/Princess Belokonsky Douglas Weston as Prince Myshkin

Directed by David Fishelson. Recorded before a live audience at the DoubleTree Suites, Santa Monica in February of 1997.
