About the play:
In February 2012, five young women walked into the Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow to protest the illegal presidential election in Russia. The young activists, who called themselves Pussy Riot, offered up a 48-second punk prayer, shouting, 揤irgin Mary, chase Putin away!� before being dragged out of the church by security. After uploading a video of the performance onto YouTube, the women of Pussy Riot were arrested as enemies of church and state. But when 麻豆社 media reclaimed the story, Pussy Riot抯 protest became the greatest piece of performance art in Russian history. This is their story.
