Lia Akhedzhakova in “Drive Your Plow Over the Bones of the Dead” at Zabeel Theatre Dubai

Lia Akhedzhakova / Лия Ахеджакова presents the acclaimed stage production «Веди свой плуг по костям мертвецов» for an exclusive night at Zabeel Theatre, Dubai. What begins as a misty, small-town mystery unfolds into a richly layered theatrical experience—part noir, part satire, part poetic meditation on the fragility of life and our responsibility to the world.

Anchored by an unforgettable central performance and elevated by live music, ethereal woodland imagery, and Blake-inspired verses, this is a rare chance to witness a modern Russian classic on a Dubai stage. Doors open 30 minutes before the show; total running time is approximately 1 hour 40 minutes.
