Inspired by a dramatic slice of Leo Tolstoy’s War and Peace, this innovative electropop opera follows the young and passionate Natasha Rostova as she arrives in Moscow, eagerly awaiting her fiancé’s return from war. But when she falls for the charming and reckless Anatole, her world is turned upside down. Caught in the middle is Pierre, a family friend struggling with his own sense of purpose, who must step in to help Natasha recover from scandal.  With its bold storytelling and genre-defying music, Great Comet has captivated audiences from its early days in New York’s Ars Nova to celebrated runs off-Broadway and on Broadway.
