‘Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812’ at Independence HS

Independence High School Theatre presents Tony-winning musical “Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812” on April 24-25 and May 1-2. The full-length show is an electropop opera ripped from a slice of Leo Tolstoy's Russian classic War and Peace. Click here for tickets, or purchase at the door, and follow Indy HS Theatre on Instagram and Facebook for more details.

Young and impulsive, Natasha Rostova arrives in Moscow to await the return of her fiancé from the front lines. When she falls under the spell of the roguish Anatole, it is up to Pierre, a family friend in the middle of an existential crisis, to pick up the pieces of her shattered reputation.

Following a critically exalted premiere at Ars Nova in New York City, a subsequent off-Broadway transfer and an acclaimed run on Broadway, this award-winning musical expands the possibilities for the genre with its daring score and bold storytelling.
