Patriots descends upon Broadway, offering a deep-dive into the turbulent evolution from the Soviet Union’s collapse to the emergence of Russia’s new oligarchic era. Crafted by Peter Morgan, celebrated for his contributions to Netflix’s “The Crown,” this compelling historical drama spotlights the dramatic transformations within the echelons of Russian power. The stage is electrified by Michael Stuhlbarg’s intense depiction of Boris Berezovsky, the oligarch pivotal to Russia’s metamorphosis, opposite Will Keen, whose Olivier Award-winning performance as Vladimir Putin chillingly depicts the rise of a political behemoth. Directed by Rupert Goold, who himself has been honored with an Olivier Award, Patriots unravels with a dynamic energy, revealing the cunning strategies and treacheries that have shaped today’s geopolitical sphere. This limited Broadway engagement is not to be missed, offering audiences not just an exhilarating theatrical spectacle but also a deep reflection on the lasting effects of Russian political strategies.
