Beast on the Moon

International City Theatre
330 East Seaside Way Long Beach

Richard Kalinoski's haunting and poetic play about two immigrants who escape the Armenian genocide in Turkey to seek refuge in America. In 1921, an Armenian mail-order bride is shipped to Milwaukee to begin a new life with her photographer husband. As they struggle to define family amidst their grief and displacement, these kindred strangers find hope, healing, redemption and love. Winner of the American Theatre Critic's Association Osborn Award and the Khorenatsi Medal, Armenia's highest cultural award.

"...Richard Kalinsoki's Beast On The Moon may have been performed in over twenty countries and translated into nineteen languages, but its latest incarnation at International City Theatre reveals flaws both in the play itself and in the production now on stage in Long Beach."

"...Beast on the Moon is a powerhouse of passion delivered by superb performers under the sensitive direction of ICT Artistic Director caryn desai. The interplay between Travis Leleand and Rachel Weck crackles with tension, affection, and conflict. Nico Ridino's spunky self-confidence calls to mind the young Mickey Rooney as Puck in Max Reinhardt's 1935 production of A Midsummer Nights Dream. And Mr. Abatemarco is the consummate pro."
