From Feb. 23 to March 11, the magical world of artist Marc Chagall and his wife Bella will be brought to life onstage at the Wallis Annenberg Center for the Performing Arts in director Emma Rice’s production of Daniel Jamieson’s “The Flying Lovers of Vitebsk.”

Following the artistic heights of “Brief Encounter” and “946: The Amazing Story of Adolphus Tips,” Kneehigh Theatre and Rice return to The Wallis with a production that combines the visuals of Chagall’s paintings with the music and dance of the Russian-Jewish tradition.

Partners in life and on canvas, Marc and Bella are immortalized as the picture of romance. On the painter’s canvas they flew, but in real life they walked through some of the most challenging times in 20th century history – navigating the devastation of war, the Russian Revolution and each other.

Tickets start at $35. Audiences are invited to enjoy craft cocktails, a handpicked bottle of wine or draft beer at The Briskin Bar @ The Wallis, located in the beautiful Jim and Eleanor Randall Grand Hall before and after each performance.

The Wallis is located at 9390 N. Santa Monica Blvd., Beverly Hills. For information and tickets, visit thewallis.org/lovers, or call (310)746-4000.
