MY MARUSECKA
Alexandra VASILYEVA
"My Marusechka" - this is the name of the story by Alexandra Vasilieva, which can not be told how difficult it is to simply describe life with all its sorrows, love and joys. The director Marina Brusnikina undertook to do this, probably because she is one of the few who knows how to talk about a Man, slowly and without flash. She owns this rare gift from prosaic texts to create a theatrical performance.
And the premiere of the theater Et cetera is a very piercing performance about the Russian woman Marusechka. About that very Russian woman who sacrifices herself as easily and habitually as the others drink coffee in the mornings. The play tells the story of Maria Khristoforovna, whose soul "suffers from various events, because it was alive", in a world broken down into pieces after an earthquake in which "it has been raining for three months and striking fireballs every night and burning trees, two hundred trees each night".
How to live, how to survive, how to save yourself and others? Each of us in life has his Marusechka - the most important person who was inconspicuous during his lifetime, but whom you remember then to the end of his days, the man through which we become people.

“ A wonderful performance ... Excellent format of the production: the absence of a stage. We got great pleasure and will continue to get acquainted with the repertoire of your theater. Thank you so much!!!
“ Thank you. The actresses played well. I was sitting in the second row, I can see the whole intensity and emotions were more than good. But, the performance in the form of "voiced prose," if I may say so, is not easily perceived. The content itself is also not easy ... And 2 hours without an intermission .... Therefore people left .. very like the game of the actress in the role of Olenka. The one that 10 children grows for the Motherland! She laughed heartily. Comedy, alive !!! Although the performance looked hard, in general.
“ A soulful performance, about the female part ... the theater itself was pleased, all friendly, surprisingly
