About This Show

Direct from his sold out performances at the world renowned Edinburgh Fringe Festival, Mark Nadler brings a new outrageous and comedic journey through music history with Tschaikowsky (and Other Russians).

This exciting cavalcade is based on the song of the same name that lists 48 Russian and Polish composers, which was written by Ira Gershwin and Kurt Weill, and launched Danny Kaye into stardom. Mark Nadler deconstructs this song by explaining who each of these men were, playing bits of their music and tying their lives to American popular song. This is a madcap, richly layered and ultimately deeply moving study of the nature of fame.
