In Acland Street, St Kilda, there stands a cafe called Scheherazade and here we meet Avram and Masha, the proprietors of the cafe and hear the tales that they and their fellow storytellers have to offer. Of Moshe stalking the streets of Shanghai and Warsaw, of Laizer imprisoned in the Soviet city of Lvov and of Zalman marooned in Vina and Kobe. And we learn how Avram and Masha met and fell in love and came to create their Melbourne cafe together. (Libraries Australia)

Music, Silence and the Single Note in the Creation of Meaning in Theatre Bagryana Popov , 2015 single work criticism
— Appears in: Australasian Drama Studies , October no. 67 2015; (p. 28-48) 'In this article, I would like to talk about sound and silence and the ways in which they create meaning, as part of the fabric of elements in theatre. I will talk about the choices that we, the artists, make in the process in order to articulate the shape and meaning through sound. I argue that music essentially contributes t the shaping of meaning, and that it does this in conversation with the performers - it is relational.' (Author's introduction)
