Yara Arts Group's Virlana Tkacz directs a multimedia work that celebrates Ukrainian culture of the 1870s as exemplified by the epic singer Ostap Versai and the young artist Porfiry Martynovych. The songs of the former are performed live by bandura specialist Julian Kytasty; the journey of the latter, whose drawings were projected at an 1875 Versai concert, is rendered by puppeteer Tom Lee. The piece is performed in English and Ukrainian (translated by Virlana Tkacz and Wanda Phipps).
