About Our Guest Artist Series

In addition to our MainStage productions, Open Eye is deeply committed to curating and presenting a dynamic Guest Artist Series that highlights emerging local artists and innovative performing ensembles who tell stories in ways that are fresh, fun, and experimental. 

Moscow, December 30, 1916: The Great War is raging, the proletariat is rising, and one mystic mad monk, the Czar and Czarina’s advisor, is lying shot, stabbed, beaten, drowned, frozen and dead by the river. Or is he? Four Humors presents Rasputin: a bloody and hilarious investigation of all three true versions of Rasputin’s gruesome death and the uncertain fate of Mother Russia.
