4:30 PM Performance by Andrei Malaev-Babel

Finding Babel follows Andrei Malaev-Babel, a Florida acting teacher, as he retraces the steps of his grandfather, Isaac Babel, the author of “Red Cavalry” and “The Odessa Tales” and a vivid chronicler of the early years of the Soviet Union. A Jew who, working for a newspaper, had gone riding among Cossacks, Babel is discussed as a voracious observer of details and ambiguities. Arrested in 1939 by the Stalinist secret police and executed in 1940, he was granted posthumous official rehabilitation in 1954. Much of his work is lost.” – The New York Times
