The Udmurts by David Zellnik

Directed by Andrew Klaus-Vineyard

May 13- June 18 2016

 

Nate, a middle-class kid from Florida who has been thrown away by his fundamentalist parents, finds his way to the ramshackle Queens apartment of Mrs. Huff. She is an old, once-glamorous foreign actress, living in exile from a (real) place called Udmurtia, and her tiny apartment holds the mysterious secrets of a vanishing culture.  Nate is torn between his growing devotion to Mrs. Huff and his desire for Clem, a Manhattan child of the “One Percent” who promises Nate a way out of poverty.  A dark, funny, and suspenseful journey, THE UDMURTS explores how we find home – and hope – in a collapsing world.  Another Portland area premiere from the Obie award-winning playwright of Let A Hundred Flowers Bloom.
