Yasha’s Tapochki

Two Russian Jewish immigrant mothers and their daughters cope with the sudden tragic death of the family patriarch. Filled to the brim with generational trauma, this film is about a family whose silent grief shows up in unexpected ways.

This film was partially funded by Cojeco - an organization for Russian Jewish immigrants in New York City.

Go Down On Me Or Die

A diverse group of women have turned their frustration into hate and violence by forming The Movement - a group that kills men who don’t go down on the women they are sleeping with. This play is an absurd dark comedy and female revenge fantasy that investigates the absurdity of male privilege in our society and what it feels like to be considered the lesser gender.

written by Marina Gasparyan & Maarit Hara

A developed version of the play was performed at The Barrow Group Theatre as a part of their Performance Artist Residency Program in March 2019.

Go Down On Me Or Die premiered at Dixon Place on November 3rd 2018.
