Upstream Theater presents the US premiere of Pictures from a Revolution (Quadri di una rivoluzione) translated by Haun Saussy through February 7. “Three last resistance fighters of an unidentified revolution are living inside the walls of a stadium, while enemies lurk outside, watching and waiting. One of the men goes looking for food and winds up bringing a woman into their closed circle. Are they right to trust her? The ensuing scenes echo a series of famous paintings by Rembrandt, Matisse, Degas, and others, and highlight themes touched on in the dialogues of this deep and darkly comic piece.” Performances take place at The Marcelle in Grand Center.
