This haunting adaptation of the Leo Tolstoy novella concerns a man consumed with obsession and jealousy who reveals his deadly secret, leading the audience on an extraordinary journey and offering a penetrating look into the mind of a man caught in a hellish marriage kept alive only by ravenous sexual appetites.  In a unique theatrical twist Mr. Pine is joined on stage by a pianist and violinist who perform part of Beethoven’s masterful Kreutzer Sonata.
