a Ukrainian-British musical performance about mining, to be presented in Kyiv, Ukraine
On Saturday 23rd October 2021, the premiere of an interdisciplinary musical film performance – weaving together dozens of stories from Donbas miners – will be performed (simultaneously live and online) at Stage 6 at the Dovzhenko Centre in Kyiv.
Antratsyt: Perseverance Day is a time travel story which takes the audience through some of the many miners’ strikes of recent Ukrainian history. Donbas-born Kyiv-based theatre director, Pavlo Yurov, and British documentary filmmaker and visual artist, Vicki Thornton, have been working for the last three years on a large collaborative research project, House of Mining, which aims to represent on-stage and on-screen the real lives and stories of Donbas mining communities. The project launches with the premiere of Antratsyt: Perseverance Day – a multi-camera live-streamed musical performance with documentary video material from Donbas included within the set design – and will culminate with a feature-length documentary film, due for completion in summer 2022.
Antratsyt: Perseverance Day and House of Mining are an international co-production project produced by Touchpoint NGO (UA) and Grand Duke Films (UK), in association with Wild Theatre and with the support of the Ukrainian Cultural Foundation and House of Europe.
