"'My Beyoncé?'"
"It’s more fun to say than fiancé."
What happens when Chekhov meets the wedding industrial complex and social media infused lives of the contemporary world? You get The Beyoncé, an ingenious, charming take on Chekhov's 1902 short story, "The Fiancée." Playwright, actor, and theater maker Eliza Bent will be the first Humanities Initiative Artist in Residence. She will conduct a talk back following Sunday's performance.
