The Tank announces the next mainstage production, THE ARTAUD DIPTYCH directed by Ioli Andreadi, that will take place in their Proscenium Theater (312 W 36th St, New York, NY, 10018). THE ARTAUD DIPTYCH consists of two new plays (Artaud/Van Gogh & Bone) which are written by two prolific Greek playwrights, Ioli Andreadi & Aris Asproulis, inspired by the life and work of the groundbreaking artist and thinker of the 20th century Antonin Artaud.

Artaud is the writer, poet, dramatist, essayist, actor and theatre director of Greek descent, widely recognized as one of the major figures of the 20th century theatre and the European avant-garde, known for his raw, surreal and transgressive themes and for his defining influence on American culture: Jim Morrison put Artaud's ideas into practice in the music and live rituals he staged at Doors’ concerts; Susan Sontag explains that Artaud's influence was so radical that the recent American theater can be divided into two eras: pre-Artaud and post-Artaud. With THE ARTAUD DIPTYCH show he returns to the stage for the last time, giving the performance of his life. His goal is to lead us from the deep, personal darkness of pain, injustice and hypocrisy to the pure and redemptive light, where the Great Law of the Heart reigns.
