In a Nutshell

Comedic tale of mistaken identity set in 1930s Paris performed by acclaimed Russian actors

The Fine Print

Live theater tends to be more thrilling than film, largely due to the heightened odds of seeing someone flub a line or deliver a stirring monologue while sitting in your lap. Witness truly dramatic close-ups with this GrouponLive deal to see Tovarich, performed by the Maxim Gorky Drama State Theater at John Hancock Hall on Tuesday, November 13, at 7:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. Choose from the following seating options:

  • For $35, you get two upper-orchestra seats in rows HH–SS (up to a $70 value, including all fees).
  • For $45, you get two upper-orchestra seats in sections AA–GG (up to a $90 value, including all fees).
  • For $60, you get two lower-orchestra seats in sections O–U (up to a $120 value).
  • For $75, you get two lower-orchestra seats in sections A–N (up to a $150 value).

Tovarich has lived several lives, transforming from a 1933 play into a 1937 film into a Tony-winning Broadway musical. Today, the acclaimed cast of the Maxim Gorky Drama State Theater revives the story, making their US debut to bring this story of comedic romanticism to John Hancock Hall. With the Russian Revolution shadowing his doorstep, the czar sends his fortune to Paris in the care of Prince Uryatiev and his wife, the Grand Duchess Tatiana Petrovna. The loyal couple refuses to spend a ruble of the czar’s wealth, instead supporting themselves by taking jobs as the butler and maid of a wealthy French family. But, unused to waiting on others, they struggle comically with these false identities—and their secret may be exposed when one of the guests at a dinner party proves to be a Soviet commissar.

The Groupon Guide to: Bettering Yourself

Everyone starts as a blank canvas, but fortunately, life provides us with all the colors needed to paint a masterpiece. Here are some things you can do every week to fulfill your destiny as a painting metaphor:

  • Make a new recipe. Mixing different kinds of cereal together counts.

  • Read a kind of book you wouldn't normally read. Maybe the instruction book for a vacuum you no longer own, or if you don't have any books, staple a bunch of menus together and say that's a book.

  • Quit a bad habit. We all love waking up in the middle of the night to break every single one of our dishes, but when you think about it, is it really doing us any good?

  • Get involved in your community. See which of your neighbors leave their doors unlocked and surprise them by spilling one of your new cereal recipes all over their floor.

  • Exercise. Chase every animal you see. They would do it to you if they had the guts.

Can two different kinds of cereal in one bowl lead to a better you?
