In 2022, after moving to the UK as a refugee, Golda released GOLDA. A Musical Story of Love, Loss and Resilience, in which she explores her experience of Russia’s war in Ukraine. The production is a collaboration between Golda, choreographer Pavlo Bondarenko, dress-designer David Koma, and producer Alexandrina Markvo.[11][12][7]
Reception
[edit]GOLDA was well received by critics.
Libby Purves wrote: “It’s hypnotic, never a boring note. <…> Explosively joyous, sad, energetic and topical mini-musical. <…> It’s about the hope that springs in any room where songs and stories come alive.”[13]
According to the Russian Art and Culture Journal, “GOLDA is more than just a show; it’s a powerful testament to the strength of the human spirit and the remarkable capacity of art to heal traumas and unite people.”[14]
