Dave Malloy’s 'Natasha, Pierre & The Great Comet of 1812' arrived at the Imperial Theatre in 2016, running for a triumphant 336 performances and sweeping twelve major Tony Award nominations. Electrically adapting a seventy-page slice of Leo Tolstoy’s literary masterpiece *War and Peace*, the groundbreaking electropop opera completely transformed the theater into an immersive, velvet-drenched Russian salon, tracking the naive Countess Natasha Rostova as she falls into a scandalous, ruinous affair with a rogue aristocrat while the lonely Pierre searches for existential redemption. Directed by Rachel Chavkin, the historic production starred Josh Groban and Denée Benton.
