Marko the Prince is part of late playwright Jovanka Bach's Balkan Trilogy (Name Day, A Thousand Smiles) that explores the lives of Yugoslavians and Serbian-Americans during Tito's communist rule of Yugoslavia.

The play, according to press notes, "is set in Sabor, a village on the border of Bosnia and Serbia, at the start the 90s Balkan War. Michael, a first-generation American, returns to Sabor to bury his mother in the village of her birth. Michael's plans are derailed when he discovers smoldering religious and ethnic resentments surrounding the ownership of Sabor's tiny village cemetery. Gossip, innuendo, passion, and politics cause uneasy alliances and dangerous conflict."

The creative team comprises Art Rotch (set design), Lucas Krech (lighting design), Carol Brys (costume design), Nikos Brisco (musical director), Ryan Bartruff (fight coordinator) and Elizabeth Rhodes (sound design). Bach's plays include Chekhov and Maria, O'Neill's Ghosts, Sylvie, A Matter of the Heart and Mercy Warren's Tea.

Marko the Prince plays a limited engagement through July 13. Tickets, priced $20, are available by phoning (212) 352-3101.

The Barrow Group Arts Center is located at 312 West 36th Street in Manhattan.
