Master and Margarita (tickets)
The Master & Margarita
Ismailova Theatre of Dance presents Master and Margarita — a physical theatre adaptation of the timeless novel by Mikhail Bulgakov.
Master finishes his novel just as a mysterious guest who possesses extraordinary powers arrives in the Soviet Union. Master and his lover Margarita dream of publishing his great work, but the rebellious nature of the novel may cost Master his life.
“Where else can such wrecks as you and I find help except from the supernatural?”
Master and Margarita is a celebrated novel written in the Soviet Union at the height of the Great Purge. This entertaining blend of satire, philosophy and magic is considered by critics to be one of the best novels of the 20th century.
The original music and signature choreography of Ismailova Theatre of Dance has moved audiences across Canada since 2010, producing numerous sold out shows, and earning rave reviews. The company has received the Toronto Arts Foundation Award as well as the Grow North Award by The North York Arts. In 2022, the company produced the world’s first physical theatre rendition of “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest”. In 2019, they produced North America’s first dance theatre production of Mikhail Bulgakov’s “Master and Margarita”, and in 2020, “Seeking Everyday Magicians” was Canada’s first fully live interactive digital production supported by the Canada Council of the Arts. In 2021, the company went on to present an immersive production of “Journey With The Wind”, where audiences were invited into the woods to witness the dance theatre show unfold around them under the trees, across the meadows, and in the river creeks — an innovative way to keep the arts alive in the midst of pandemic isolation.
