More about 33 Variations by Moises Kaufman
33 Variations focuses on a mother coming to terms with her daughter and a composer coming to terms with his genius. Though they are separated by 200 years, the mother and composer share an obsession that might, even just for a moment, make time stand still. Drama, memory and music combine to transport the audience from present-day New York to 19th-century Austria in this extraordinary new American play about passion, parenthood and the moments of beauty that can transform a life.
