How are Muslim artists in Russia and the former Soviet Republics of Central Asia creating art that pushes boundaries without inciting censorship and government reprisals? Come to our Annual Salon to meet with Moscow-based playwrights Olzhas Zhanaydarov and Evgeny Kazachkov who will provide insider perspectives on theatre making in Russia. The conversation will be moderated by Silk Road Rising Co-Founder Jamil Khoury, whose play Mosque Alert (translated into Russian) will be performed in Moscow and St. Petersburg in June 2019. Wine, cheese, dessert reception included.
