Wellfleet writer's 'Oblomov' brings Russian classic to U.S.
From the article:
"Rice, who has academic degrees in Russian language and literature, wrote a 12-actor stage adaptation of "Oblomov" that debuted to acclaim in 2002 at the Sakha Theater in Yakutsk, Russia, where it ran in repertory for two years. After long urging from friends, he's translated the script back to English and reworked it (the play now has three actors), and the show is having its American premiere at Wellfleet Harbor Actors Theater."
