“ Two monologues, one love story. A monologue is a difficult situation for an actor. But it is very interesting to listen to monologues that work out. A monologue is an opportunity for an actor to open up to the maximum, because time allows and no one interferes. I love monologues, I'm waiting for them. And having read that the play “Teach me to love” is two monologues, I realized that it was for this performance that I needed! And it was two awesome monologues! Tatiana Bunkova as Tatiana Anatolyevna. Alexey Romanov as Misha. Behind the outward simplicity of the Kolyada-theater hides an unseen depth. And going to this performance, I was sure that I had prepared for it. To the depth. But the catharsis that had overtaken me, more like a shock, was so strong, and the tears were so hot and blissful that it came out to be steeper than the cobra at the VDNH that I came to to the surface. The plot may seem trivial. She is a teacher, he is a student. She is 37, he is 17. And between them is love. "Yeah, yeah. Right here is love." - many will say, and this opinion is not surprising. BUT. Here really is love. This. That same "accidental". The first begins her story about love she. And everything in this love is understandable and even familiar to me as a spectator. And there is something to sympathize with, and there is something to justify. It is easy to put yourself in the place of this woman, it is easy to imagine how she felt. And only the end of the story is suddenly like a butt on the head, and you are dumbfounded and as if in a fog ask yourself: did she really love you? And only then comes the realization that she loved. More precisely, I learned to love. How to learn to love and the second hero of this novel. Misha This men's love story does everything with the audience exactly the opposite: first butt on the head, “did he really love it?”, And then everything is so deep, clear and understandable that literally the wings behind not only grow, but they also start cracking down, and even waving impatiently, because you, too, need urgently to soar from the very overflowing love of you yourself. Yes. I saw that everyone learns love here. She, because she seems to know how to love, but for the first time she encounters love so large that she is not very ready for it. It is because it takes only the first steps on this path simply due to lack of experience. And along with the heroes, all the spectators are learning it. Because everyone, everyone, even if he does not believe or denies it, needs love. Not only and not so much someone's love for him, but, more importantly, his own ability to love. Learn to love! Take this first step though! Go to the theater!
