37 HOURS AND 3 MINUTES is a slightly deficient mapping of Tolstoy's masterpiece Anna Karenina. Five performers on stage. Music. Costume. Light. Video. Talking. Dancing. Singing. Premiere 9 Feb 2022 at Elverket / Dansens Hus Stockholm (SE).
For those of you who have not read the book or for those of you who have read it a long time ago and of course also for those of you who don't have the stamina to read it, 37 HOURS AND 3 MINUTES now offers a survey of Tolstoy's masterpiece. In this collective investigation, we are guided by five dedicated people who are not afraid to investigate issues such as; are we approaching the end of history? How exactly did Tolstoy walk? Who is the most likable character in the book? 37 HOURS AND 3 MINUTES is the time it takes for an average reader to read the whole novel.
"-People who are shocked by what is happening in the last three or four months in Russia are more likely to quote Tolstoy than Dostoevsky." Tanya, a literature student in Moscow.
