About the Show

Benjamin’s Passion is a true tragicomedy about a Ukrainian ballet director isolated in Idaho and an aging dancer who lands her big break as they confront existential questions. It asks: “Is it possible to love something without it driving you crazy?,” “What comes next at the end of the line?,” and “Does the football team belong in the Nutcracker?” A tale of passion, disappointment, and…MURDER?
