The Barn Theatre is set to return next month with a co-production world premier of Cat Goscovitch’s new play – A Russian Doll. The Cirencester-based theatre have teamed up with Arcola Theatre, London, for this play which is based on a true story. It follows twenty-something Masha as she becomes embroiled in the world of data and deceit as a member of Russia’s disinformation campaigns during the EU referendum. Iwan Lewis, artistic director and CEO of the Barn Theatre, said of the theatre’s reopening: “We love great partnerships here at the Barn Theatre. “We were able to negotiate a global pandemic through creative and brilliant collaborations and it’s great to kick off our 2021 season with another.
A Russian Doll
The Barn Theatre in Cirencester and the Arcola Theatre in London will co-produce Cat Goscovitch s new play
A Russian Doll, which will reopen the Barn in May.
Directed by Nicolas Kent, the show will have its world premiere on 18 May, with London dates (set to take place in the Arcola s new outdoor space, Arcola Outside), to be revealed.
Goscovitch, daughter of C P Taylor, said today: The EU referendum was a moment that changed the history of the United Kingdom forever. In writing this play, I wanted to explore what role Russian disinformation played in influencing the vote and how it impacted not just our political lives but also our personal. How does a click become a vote? What does it mean to take someone down the rabbit hole? And will we ever come back?

There is no better way to stir up water cooler conversation than the simple question: Which grocery store or steakhouse do you want to come to Greenville?Â
Thatâs exactly what happened on Tuesday when the Greenville Herald-Banner asked a variation of that question via the newspaperâs Facebook page and got a torrent of responses from hundreds of people. The question was simple: When it comes to business here in Greenville, we are missing what?Â
Call it a pent-up demand for groceries and steak but it was more of a flood of response. In all, the simple question garnered more than 10,000 interactions via Facebook and the post reached more than 17,000 people. We combed through more than 380 of the 1,000 answers to find that our readers listed 68 specific businesses they wanted to come to Greenville. Some also longed for businesses that failed here to return.Â
