"Seagull" A.P. Chekhov is widely popular and is often staged in theaters of the capital. In the production of Dainius Kazlauskas, the main emphasis is not on the history of the actress, unlucky, like many Chekhovian heroes, in love, but selflessly devoted to her acting role. On the contrary, the author puts Konstantin Treplev - unrequitedly in love with the writer.

Lacking affection from the narcissist mother-actress, who could not find peace, even in the glory that came to him as a writer, heard a refusal from the one he had long and faithfully loved, Treplev decides that for him there is no more reason to live in this world.

A fatal decision, an irreversible act ... The end of life, the end of fate ...

You never know what to expect from this bohemian. Creative people are freakish, cruel. They live by their own whims. One word is eccentrics.

They sit, drink tea on their verandah, grasshoppers chirp around, trains rustle. And I think about how to simply bring people into that "bright, kind."

Chatters, of course, but willing to people of good. They will suffer, posokrushayutsya about the fate of the motherland and go to play cards.

Taking on the role of the builder of human souls, the soft-baked writer himself can not keep track of his women.

His wife is ready for everything for him, even to close his eyes to his betrayal. She, of course, forgives, but she always gets a handkerchief out of her pocket.

Writers generally have an amnesty for adultery. What to do, these are the costs of the profession - the muse is always necessary.

It is desirable with a pretty face, tight curls and a slim figure. By the way, the groom of the muse is a revolutionary, and such people do not live long.

Wife - husband - mistress ... but the classic love triangle instantly crumbles and turns into a square when a new woman appears, young and inexperienced.

Each production of Vladimir Pankov is becoming an extraordinary event of Moscow theater. Although even in the whole whole country.

Perhaps, because this director manages to not only talently embody on the stage any works. In addition, he created his own - an amazing direction called "saundrama." "Morphine" - the first in this series, brought him a few theater awards and has been on the stage for nine years already. And created for the Festival. Chekhov "War" continues to conquer the metropolitan public.

And now, a new performance in the same amazing style, combining music, plastic, text. When all this, even simple noises, merges into a single whole, forming the space of the inner world where the characters live, help them to immerse themselves completely in the atmosphere of their life, to feel them at arm's length.

And what will he tell us about this time? About such a strange and at the same time very Russian concept as "zilovshchina." About where the truly Russian yearning comes from and what it does to a person. And that a person who has lost himself in this melancholy, who has lost the opportunity to love, and maybe even a belief in what he is capable of loving, does with the people around him.

Here Hamlet wanders around the stage with a volume in his hand. He, the actor giving a presentation in Elsinore, the prince only on the stage. But, as befits an actor, Hamlet lives his role to the end. So, learning that the present king, Hamlet's uncle, treacherously killed his brother-king, Hamlet's father, in order to deceive the throne, Hamlet decides to take revenge on his uncle. In his decision, however, he is not sure, and he constantly fluctuates between the notorious "to be" and "not to be," and only in the final, dying, dares to pierce his uncle with a deadly rapier.

So, the story line is true to the Shakespearean text, full of questions and insoluble mysteries. However, the fact that Hamlet is actually a lyceum and fulfills his role without parting with the book makes it possible to say that one truly Shakespearian problem is particularly prominently displayed and grotesquely explicated in the production: do we choose the role that we will play? If not, can we even stage it, arrange accents, creatively beat events, scenery, costumes? Or all that remains for us is to act, frantically giving in to the fact that we live, and asking as little as possible about the question, but who has invented all this, if, say, we fell for revenge for our father and die in the finale of our tragedy?
