Yara Arts Group, founded in 1990, is a resident company of La MaMa Theater in New York. In rehearsal we transform various materials into an experimental theater production in our signature style of multilingual dialogue and music supported by evocative visuals and projections. Timely issues are explored through the diverse cultural perspectives of the group’s members. A critic wrote: “The performance builds what good theatre should always build: an alternate world that allows us to re-learn and reflect upon the great questions at the core of our being human.” The company has created 35 theatre pieces: 23 pieces based on materials from Eastern Europe, 6 theater pieces were with Buryat-Mongolian artists from Siberia, 2 based on Kyrgyz epics from Central Asia, 3 on Japanese materials and one on Hawaiian. We measure our success by our ability to open our audiences to the ideas in our pieces. We also produce poetry, art and music events to support our shows.

Story

In December Yara is bringing the Koliadnyky from Kryvorivnia who will sing Winter Songs and traditional music from the Carpathians. They will perform at the Ukrainian Museum in New York Dec 6 & 7 at 7PM and at the UECC in Jenkintown Dec 8 at 3 PM.

Then on Dec 19, 20, &22 Yara will present Opera GAZ, which we created with Nova Opera at La MaMa Experimental Theatre in New York. GAZ performed in Kyiv and Vienna to rave reception. Help us bring the artists from Ukraine. We need to get visas, buy plane tickets and pay for tech.

Help us Make Yara's 30th season SUPER-special!
