CHICAGO – The heralded Off-Broadway play from 2023 is on tour and headed for Chicago. “A Star Without a Name,” a melodramatic tragicomedy translated from Mikhail Sebastian’s “Steua Fare Nume” will be performed at the Chopin Theatre on April 6th and 7th, 2024. For details and ticket information, click PM THEATER.

The setting of the play is a provincial town in Romania, situated along the popular train route from Bucharest to Sinaia. By sheer chance, an express train makes a quick stop a the town’s only train station, leaving behind a sole passenger: a mysterious young redhead named Mona. Her beauty strikes right through the heart of a simple school teacher, who’s captivated by astronomy. Will their improbable love survive past its cosmic conception or will it combust like so many nameless stars in the sky?
