==Theatre== In the 1990s, Daniel Jamieson wrote ''The Flying Lovers of Vitebsk'', a play concerning the life of Chagall and partner Bella. It has been revived multiple times, most recently in 2020 with [[Emma Rice]] directing a production which was live-streamed from the [[Bristol Old Vic]] and then made available for on-demand viewing, in partnership with theaters around the world.<ref>{{Cite web|title=''The Flying Lovers of Vitebsk'' comes to The Wallis|url=https://beverlypress.com/2020/12/the-flying-lovers-of-vitebsk-comes-to-the-wallis/|access-date=16 May 2019|website=The Stage}}</ref> This production had Marc Antolin in the role of Chagall and Audrey Brisson playing Bella Chagall; produced during the COVID epidemic, it required the entire crew to quarantine together to make the live performance and broadcast possible.<ref>{{Cite web|last=Halliburton|first=Rachel|title=''The Flying Lovers of Vitebsk'', Bristol Old Vic/Kneehigh/Wise Children online review β ravishing vision of Chagall's early life|url=https://www.theartsdesk.com/theatre/flying-lovers-vitebsk-bristol-old-vickneehighwise-children-online-review-%E2%80%93-ravishing-vision|access-date=16 May 2019|website=www.kneehigh.co.uk}}</ref> In 2022, James Sherman wrote ''Chagall in School'', a play concerning Chagall's leadership of the Vitebsk Art College.
