VASILISA MOST LOVELY Written by Kevin Kautzman Directed by Dina Vovsi
About This Show
On her deathbed, Vasilisa’s mother gives her a special doll to comfort her in her grief. Later, when faced with excessive chores at the hands of a greedy step-mother and step-sisters with serious boy problems, Vasilisa discovers her doll really does have the power to comfort her. Literally. A play about loss, growing up and the hope that kindness might heal what time cannot.
This is an AEA Approved Showcase.
