Heartfelt thanks to everyone who contributed to APL’s capital campaign to raise funds for space for Uncle Vanya. As of today, we have met and exceeded our goal!
The campaign site remains open and active until opening night, March 21, should anybody else want to contribute to other aspects of this work (actor stipends, costumes, set pieces, etc). That said, we are thrilled to bring the active campaign to a close with this successful outcome.
Sincerely,
Zhenya & Joseph Lavy, on behalf of the entire APL Company of Uncle Vanya

The ensemble practices rigorous, ongoing vocal and physical training and devises original work through long-form rehearsal process. APL's signature aesthetic, Theatre of Polyphony, is our original approach to crafting ensemble performance events that symbiotically interweave music, movement, and poetry to tell compelling and vital stories while reinventing the given spatial location and audience relationship to our art.

The co-artistic directors' artistic lineage comes through the Central and Eastern European heritage of Meyerhold, Vakhtangov, and Grotowski.
