Satan comes to 1930’s Moscow, but he’s not the devil we think we know…

“engrossing – This is the kind of apparent simplicity that demonstrates real theatrical sophistication – an invitation for an audience to take a leap of the imagination. A stunning combination of stagecraft and storytelling.” The Edmonton Journal

theater simple shakes up a philosophical Molotov cocktail with shots of magic realism, vaudeville, the Bible and live music in this original interpretation of Mikhail Bulgakov’s final masterpiece. Originally created in 1997, it toured 4 years across the US, Canada and Australia. Last seen in Seattle in 2001, it will celebrate theater simple’s 29th year of making theatrical mischief by running amok at Theatre off Jackson in the International District. (Theater entrance down Maynard Alley, this time around.)

“Treat yourself to The Master & Margarita. It’s pure theatrical poetry – in its ambitions, concerns and form – and poetry in the theatre is as startlingly unexpected as spiritual honesty in everyday life.” Georgia Straight – Vancouver, Canada

Recipient of the FRINGE AWARD for BEST PLAY at the 1998 Adelaide Fringe, M&M has been theater simple’s most requested work, and given the state of global politics, seemed ripe for re-examination.
