“ Igor Kartashev is a wonderful actor, singer and composer. Nature generously endowed him with talents - artistry, a musical ear, a strong velvet voice, with a unique, only his inherent timbre. I go practically to all the evenings of Igor Kartashev and each time I get a tremendous pleasure from meeting with the real artist. I envy those who get acquainted with the work of Kartashev for the first time!))) Tatiana.

“ My soul is tight in my chest! I want to dance and enjoy life, despite the autumn rain outside the window! Thanks to Angelica Holina and all the participants and creators of the play! I recommend that everyone get positive emotions and get a piece of love and happiness!

“ Were at the play 10/10/2017. Terrific! A wonderful evening! Thank you so much!

“ Incredibly talented !!! How many emotions the play causes !! I advise everyone to see and feel this!

“ Very, very much! Fresh, fun, bright, favorite artists, the quality of the game and the plot. For a Sunday evening after office everyday life - it's just a delight and energy for 3-4 weeks ahead! Thank you very much to all the creators. We got a lot of positive! Maxim Sukhanov - just super!

“ Very pleased! I want to watch, listen and hear! Thank you! Bravo!!!

“ Absolutely inimitable game, such intonational accents, such bursts of laughter. A profound subtext is replaced by simple-hearted explanations of the essence of the matter. Dog! My captain! gave a great mood, thank you!

“ A wonderful performance is one of the best productions that can be seen in Moscow. Brilliant play of actors.

“ Went with a colleague 07.09.17g. on Oedipus King, received a charge of positive energy. The visual presentation of the myth of Sophocles was excellent! The scenery, the actors' play left an unforgettable impression. I think everyone who came (the hall was full), was satisfied! I would go again.

“ "Othello" is a stunning production! It has burst into tears! Charm in every movement and in every sound!

“ The actors play touched, the plot is instructive.

“ Did not like. We left in the intermission. In my opinion, it's gone.

“ The performance is excellent: the theme is eternal, the actors' game is penetrating.

“ For a long time I wanted to see the performance "The Marriage of Figaro" at the Vakhtangov Theater. After all, the theater is famous for its classical productions. I wanted to see more because the version of Pushkin's theater was remembered by its traditional interpretation, which is amazing for the Pushkin Theater. In the theater of Vakhtangov everything turned out differently. Mirzoev - the director of the play, created the modern Figaro. The first impression was made by a stray, thieves and a slightly stupid count who keeps the entire production. Of course you can feel the Shchukin school. Only Pike brings up a traditional actor. Those dances, those monologues, those musical numbers speak about the high education of the Shchukin. Although this has its plus, and its minus. For some reason it seemed to me that the actors are losing their individuality, there was a "punching". It was a comparison of two theatrical performances of different theaters I loved. To say which Figaro is better, what is worse - it is impossible. Each is original, unique and interesting. Tightness in the play was present, at times it was boring, but the count brought cheerfulness into the plot. In general, the production is worth watching when you get tired of work, bustle, messing around and want to relax, relax and spend the evening in a theatrical setting.

“ We were on the 15th of April. Thank the director and artists of the theater for the performance "Smile to us, Lord." Three Jews in the performance of Makovetsky, Sukhorukov and Knyazev are simply wonderful! And what a goat - Rutberg! Although the events took place 100 years ago, but are perceived as today's! In this tragic life there is a lot of philosophy and humor.

“ I love Vakhtangov's theater, but this performance did not like it - it's long, tedious, hard. Actor's game is great - and Simonov, and Guskov, and Sukhorukov and Viktor Dobronravov, just did not like the play itself, its message

“ The play is about "eternal". After watching active thinking processes and introspection began, I wanted to look at my life a little from a different angle and something to correct) And in general, for perception, the production is very successful. Despite the fact that the play touches on difficult topics, thanks to acting and directing (and not only) work - everything looks very harmonious and it's interesting to watch the performance. At the end the hall applauded standing.

“ I liked the play, especially the game Guskov

“ The play is beautiful, Etush is divinely unique! My favorite theater!

“ Choreographic production for me as not for the professional, but as for the ballet-dancer was a new discovery of last season. This is not ballet, it is a narrative without the words of all known history. Incredible fullness of emotions is transmitted by dramatic actors without words, movement, gaze, turning of the head, gesture. In combination with music and light, everything is so harmonious that there are no questions about the correctness and coherence of the movements of actors-not dancers. Bright and charismatic dramatic actors convey the essence of things! They do not pull the toes and do not give out complex "pas," but they penetrate the soul like an electric discharge.

“ A stunning performance that touches on many topics. Actual and alive in our days. Pre-revolutionary Gorky is good, Zykov's play is very modern. The actors play is brilliant!

“ What pleases you - you can go to Angelique Holin boldly, knowing that it will be something breathtaking. We watched the Women's Coast, and Anna Karenina, and now - Othello. And everything is just amazing. Of course, one must love this. To watch the play without words, something in between ballet and a dance, I think, not everyone can. But how?!?! How does she manage to transmit emotions through plastic, and even so that the heart stops. At her performances you sit and do not breathe. Vakhtangov was very lucky with her. Straight and I want to say on the motive "aftar pischi disappear" - "Angelica, we are waiting for your productions" !!! Antipenko, Lerman and Dobronrav are inimitable!

“ I liked the production and playing of actors. thanks for

“ Magnificent, unusual.

“ I came from the play, I can not help but share my disappointment! It's endlessly prolonged, the dialogues are unjustifiably long, jokes in the style of KVN. At the end of the scene in the garden, there is also a parody of Renata Litvinov! The glowing horns on Figaro's head against the background of a continuous bad taste were no longer evident. Very sad for the good actor Sukhanov and director Mirzoyev! Failure!!!

“ A wonderful performance, touched to the depths of my soul! Thank you very much to all artists!

“ Boring, uninteresting performance. Which even Tumeikina and Guskov could not revive .. The performance did not like. They left after the first act.

“ Has received huge pleasure! The production is beautiful, thank you.

“ I liked the performance. I respect and like Alentov and Men'shov very much. I wish them health and creative success!

“ Incredibly original production. The cast is wonderful - Antipenko and Lerman are amazing!

“ Excellent classical Russian performance: with love, the bitter truth of life, the opportunity to reflect on your life about the soul, the thoughts of faith - where it is, what it consists of and how it manifests itself, humor, optimism, tragedy, relations of fathers and children ... In the play, the fountain life force - Alexei Guskov. Little did not suffice (in my opinion) "truth" from Lidia Velezheva. Thank you

“ The plasticity of the actors' body expresses so expressively the emotions and thoughts of the characters that she herself has experienced these emotions. Shook the choreography and costumes. Nothing distracts from the experience and penetration into the performance itself. Love! It was impossible to even imagine what it was playing! So live! Fly on the wings of love-the movement of pens and bare legs! And how we are tormented by a hangover! All this: and turns inside out and splits in half and then up and down! And they do it with their own body ... Miracles and the power of emotions go off scale! This is not a performance for joy and laughter! This is for those who have everything so well, but it would not hurt to shake)!

“ A wonderful performance. Thanks to Master Etush

“ A wonderful performance with wonderful actors. What a pity that so few Gorky plays go to theaters. Many thanks to all the creators for the wonderful evening.

“ As always, the performance in the Vakhtangov Theater is above all praise! The actors' game is excellent, two and a half hours passed unnoticed. Many thanks for the delightful actor Maxim Sukhanov !!!

“ Very good performance! Bravo!

“ A wonderful performance! Just about life, about love, about forgiveness, truly wise and deep. A great game of actors is still, but Vladimir Abramovich Etush - BRAVO!

“ Thank you. Mentally, spiritually, cordially. Health and well-being Etushu

“ The performance was extraordinary. I liked it very much. The actors play is magnificent. Stylish, intelligent. Such a modern reading of the play. During the whole performance I did not notice that it was about pre-revolutionary life. Excited.

“ Bravo to the great artist Etush! The performance is stunning! I advise everyone to go.

“ Many thanks for the wonderful. I liked it very much. A wonderful game of actors.

“ The performance surpassed all expectations. Etush is magnificent and unique. Actors do not play, but live on stage, helping Etushu to reveal all his skills. Thank you.

“ Elegant performance! Elegant Vladimir Etush! Gratitude to all actors.

“ Did not like. If there is nothing to say, then do not say it. Stretched, boring, boring. About nothing

“ A wonderful performance, an excellent performance of actors, an interesting musical series

“ Great performance !!

“ I'm ecstatic, Etush is a genius, it's a pity that in the movie I only know him from comic roles

“ Many thanks for a wonderful evening in your theater !!! The choreographic performance is a performance not for the mass spectator, but for true connoisseurs of art, for the thinking spectator. Unfortunately, there are not so many in our time today! The actors play is amazing! Once again I am convinced that "if an actor is talented, he is talented in everything." Plastic, dramatic, symbolism and much more, all at the highest level! A huge bow to the whole group of artists! You guys are great! Special thanks to the director !!!

“ Were with my wife at the play on 01/28/2015. More disappointed. Smart actors play a boring, gloomy production. This time Vakhtangov disappointed ...

“ Extraordinarily touching.Vladimir Etush excited our conscience.

“ I liked the performance very much. I'll go again, I already bought tickets. I want to enjoy the game Etush. Inna

“ Very piercing performance: both in the plot and in the game! Girl Masha, who knows that her life will be short, and therefore she loves this life and helps others to fill the life with love! The old man is an academician in the brilliant performance of VA. Etush, whose highest wisdom manifests itself in the understanding that the love of people is more important than the love of science. Still, it is love that will save this world!

“ A fine performance. I must say that I was afraid of Gorky, since the stormy petrel is not close to me now. But the performance surpassed all my expectations. Bow to the actors and everyone who did it.

“ Great performance. An excellent game Etush - feel the high-class performance of the actors of the Vakhtangov school. It looked with pleasure. A touching story, perfectly conveyed by acting.

“ Magnificent V. Etush in the classic play about family values ​​and love.

“ June 1, 2015 were at the play. Very satisfied: looks at one go. The combination of music and dance is fascinating. The only drawback: the second branch was tightened a little (the scene with Desdemona).

“ Performance for an amateur. The setting is peculiar. I want to mention the excellent game of Viktor Sukhorukov

“ The play was disappointing. I waited for interesting philosophical reflections on the life of several Jews at sunset, and the play was prolonged, boring, leaving no food for thought. Only the game Sukhrukov is incomparable! It is worth going to those who love this actor. My friend in the intermission, still gone.

“ The play is in the usual style of Yuri Lyubimov. Unusual production, very musical, non-classical. Those who are a fan of the old Taganka headed by Lyubimov - it will be a pleasure

“ Live art. Etush is magnificent. The performance is an example of remarkable direction.

“ Hello! Ambiguous impression left the performance, on the one hand, star cast, Sukhorukov, as always, is beautiful, on the other hand - the production itself seemed long, tedious and difficult to perceive .... I wanted to leave: (((((

“ Buying tickets for this performance, I read a lot of quite contradictory reviews: someone liked it, someone categorically does not. So I'll try to express my opinion. The performance is classical. I think this is the best epithet for him. This definition can explain the duration (about 3 hours), and pauses in the dialogues, and the seeming detachment and coldness of the artists. But in my opinion, all of the above nuances do not spoil it at all. And in the Theater. E. Vakhtangova people come to touch the true art, and not to a fleeting fashion. Separately, I would like to highlight the game of Alexei Guskov. He is incomparable, indisputably talented. And Lidia Velezheva is not lost on her background ... A very good acting duo!

“ As always - awesome! Maxim Sukhanov does not cease to amaze

“ Super performance! And laughed and cried) Etush great!

“ Went with friends on the play on March 15. The performance of the actors is excellent, but due to the fact that they were not familiar with the original work, not everything was clear. But now we get acquainted with the work of Grigory Kantorovich, on which the performance was staged. And I advise everyone to read the original first. More you will understand. I liked the play although it is a long time and not dynamic.

“ A stunning performance! Touching, lyrical, but at the same time ironic and very deep. Vladimir Etush is incomparable. Thank you!

“ Were on June 13th. Originally bought tickets for "Uncle's Dream", but did not regret the replacement of the play. The performance is magnificent, somewhere it makes you smile, somewhere you will feel sad. The play of the actors was on top. Particularly admired was Vladimir Abramovich Etush. The hall was full, applauded standing.

“ Before joining the theater of Rumas Tuminas for me, the theater named after E.Vakhtangov was always a mystery. I left after three acts with three performances. Although I am an avid theatergoer and I highly respect hard acting. The play "Smile to us, Lord!" insanely touching, irony in dramaturgists - tragifars. The game of all actors without exception is amazing! I recommend everyone to go to this performance, as he will not leave anyone indifferent.

“ The performance is wonderful. The choreography is magnificent. Actors - the work of the workshop. But .... Desdemona's desperate scene is unbelievable. There is a frank desire to strangle her.

“ The play did not pass in one breath - it flew by! What a pity for them, and laughter is sad, but it is sometimes not possible to laugh. What a pity for us - we are the same, we are all in the same cart, on one road - life. Very deep impressions. The game is bravissimo !! I watched on March 8 as part of Simonov, Guskov, Sukhorukov, Rutberg, Popov, Fedorov, Dobronravov and others. It was a holiday not only "March 8" - a holiday of the soul. Not just on the site of the theater already sold out - there are no tickets for April at all! While there is, I go again. Listen, ponder, enjoy playing your favorite actors.

“ A remarkable, touching performance with the participation of the Great Master - Vladimir Abramovich Etush (I confess, went exactly on him). Here, the Master in the role of academician Okayomov, a Soviet historian, shown a playwright and director in a domestic situation, closed in the framework of his metropolitan apartment. And the situation seems to be simple, but it keeps us interested in what will happen next. Of course, age spares no one. And the audience in the hall (and it was a sold-out!) Feels it and understands it. But the school, skill, experience - all this evokes a standing ovation of a grateful spectator and flowers, flowers, flowers ... "Come to us again"! - "Come on!" I also want to mention the work of Maria Kostikova in the role of Masha, granddaughter. At first, like, her game seems very fake, unnatural. But she was touched by her tears after V. Etush's monologue, which ended in a play. And this work is seen not only as a goal to please us, the audience, but as a desire to deserve the Master's praise. Vera Novikova, with her very small role at the end of the play, is also praising. And in general - thanks to all!

“ The magnificent performance left an indelible impression. The work itself and the inimitable play of actors make the audience think about such seemingly simple and ordinary things as love, respect for the older generation, compassion, mutual understanding. such important values, but at times so lacking in our daily and vain life.

“ Great performance! Game Alexey Guskov just on top!

“ Grandiose, bewitching. Wonderful choreography. It depends on how the actors move, understands every sense of the heroes of "Othello".

“ Bravo!!! Four of them walked, the age was from 24 to 62. Everyone is shocked. Music! Costumes !! Dancing! The game and plastic drama. Artists !!!!!

“ Wonderful game this. The play itself disappointed. It is even surprising how from Afinogenov's remarkable play managed to make such a featureless production! . Etush draws on himself the entire spectrum, for which he thank you so much!

“ A peculiar reading of the play Beaumarchais, enchanting Maxim Sukhanov created a philosophical mood towards the end of the play and something wanted cognac rather than uncorking a bottle of champagne. In a word - I liked it

“ Beautiful performance. A great play of actors. Thank you so much.

“ I liked the performance very much. Etush is gorgeous! Good play + good actors = well spent evening. I'm glad that I looked at myself and took my son.

“ very much! Thank you!

“ In truth, the Patriarch of the Russian scene is Vladimir Etush! Infinitely bravo!

“ The play did not make a deep impression, they looked at it as just a kind of story. I associate this with the fact that the places were far away (amphitheater, 5th row), I had to listen carefully, because it was audible badly. Very much I do not advise these places, it is better a balcony. After the intermission, some left. BUT a game of actors, especially Guskova is simply gorgeous!

“ Many thanks! The performance is wonderful. Etush is magnificent. The last scene of the play touched to tears. God grant health and longevity wonderful. To the actor!

“ Not a bad performance. Everything holds true on Sukhanov. It is worth to go just for his sake.

“ Theater Vakhtangov from the category of the favorite! But this performance did not like, they left after the first action. Very sorry!

“ The performance is wonderful! Vladimir Etush - BRAVO! Great Actor! I recommend this show to everyone.

“ Unusually and powerfully! :-)

“ Thank you so much! I want to see it again, I'll bring my son!

“ The performance really liked! The staging, the play of actors, all at the highest level! Thank you!

“ Impressive, but very depressing ... Gloomy!

“ I really liked the performance, I would recommend it to everyone! The play is the strongest, the actors' game is beautiful! It's strange that on a small stage, but maybe because of this you penetrate more strongly?

“ December 30, 2014 was at the play. An interesting interpretation. The campaign for this performance was random. Of course, immediately provokes provocation - a provocation in dialogues, in a manner, in images: humor, sharpness, reality makes you dive into the essence of the plot in the first few minutes. No swinging at once - "bang" and dynamics. The rhythm of monologues, dialogues holds to the end and there is no sense of congestion - all on business. Of course - a big plus - the ironic text and the actors' play. Thanks to each actor for the images that combine so many nuances and details. For me - a good performance is valuable in the event that after looking, thinking, asking questions - imagine, reflect, worry, feel emotions that are far from indifference and tranquility.

“ Good performance, beautiful cast. Classics, which is 100 years old, and as if written yesterday, because the problems are the same - mental callousness and blindness, inability and unwillingness to hear and be heard by close people, and as a result - loneliness and restlessness. And although in the final all sat down, as for a family photo, the family - no, only a common roof over your head. The performance makes you think and empathize, and you believe actors from the first to the last minute. Thanks to all!!!

“ A remarkably staged performance. Despite the fact that I do not like the modern tendency to remove dialogues from the performance and do dance-acrobatic performances, Othello impressed me unlimitedly. A lot of really original director's finds. I advise you to go)

“ Delivered very academically. Directing at the highest level. From the actors I would like to mention the one who played Lebedyansky.

“ I liked the performance. The convenient service of purchasing tickets, service in the wardrobe, buffet - fast and polite. The play itself tells about the life of ordinary people, with their joys and sorrows, without hysteria, shooting and "borderline conditions," which harmonizes the state of mind of the viewer, which in our troubled times is extremely important. Thank you!

“ Thank you. I liked the play, it seemed that the first action was a little delayed. The scenery is excellent. Stage decisions are fascinating. The actors play is amazing. Only everything is very sad.

“ Delivered well, but without preparation, reading the work or even knowing the plot look difficult.

“ I'm happy with the press of the play "Smile to us, Lord!", I'm happy. Another deep philosophical work of the devilishly talented Lithuanian Tuminas. Heavy, depressing performance. I do not know how Rimas creates his creations, how he uses the necessary meanings from literature, who (or what?) Dictates to him such symbolic ways of presenting the material, but I'm sure that the imagination of an artist of universal dimensions is boundless! It is proved. If Eugene Onegin is a work that disturbs the soul, lifting it, tearing it from the ground, gives a sense of flight, then the March premiere looks more like a fall or a hard landing: a philosophy about fathers and children, about the meaning of life, about disappointment, about death; about hopelessness, hopelessness, hopelessness, and sometimes despair, reaching suicide ... In short, the states in which there are heroes, make a depressing impression. A bitter humor, which is widely diluted spectrum, only exacerbates the impression of what is happening. A stern spectacle, for an inquisitive spectator. This is an important thing, gentlemen, but without that masterpiece that we were spoiled and fed by Rimas in previous productions and which many greedily waited for. Among them was me.

“ 10/15/2016 I was lucky to attend the play "Demons". Yes Yes ! It was, fortunately, because for a very long time theatrical productions had not touched me so deeply. Dostoevsky, in my opinion, is one of the most brilliant and at the same time one of the most difficult writers. It is so multifaceted and multifaceted, unpredictable and to some extent inaccessible to the perception of a simple inhabitant, that I still consider it a great courage to include it in the school program on literature. Therefore, it was insanely curious to see "his creation" on the stage of the theater, I really did not understand how such a thing is possible. The play "The Possessed" was a symbiosis of two geniuses - the writer Dostoevsky and the director Lyubimov. At once I will note that it is necessary to go to the play well-prepared, ie, carefully re-reading the original and then you will be completely immersed in what is happening on the stage. The central figure is Sergey Epishev in the role of Nikolai Stavrogin, his demonic face creeps up to the chills, he dominates people and space, sweeping people with his height and gaze. In parallel with him lives on the stage of a small cunning drank Yuri Kraskov in the role of Peter Verkhovensky, which, as the narrative turns into Satan. It is quite symbolic that Tikhon is also playing Yuri Krasnov, from which the dialogue between Stavrogin and Tikhon acquires a strong emotional load. Inimitable Evgeny Kosyrev as Captain Lebyadkin. Arthur Ivanov in the role of Shatov is always impeccable. Yuri Shlykov is quite organic in the guise of Stepan Verkhovensky. Female images turned out a little weaker: the inexpressive Elizaveta Tushina in the performance of Eugenia Cregezhde, funny (but no more) Maria Berdinskikh - Chromophone, Ekaterina Simonova (Varvara Stavrogina) is unnecessarily stinky in power abuse. I would not like to spread the thought of the tree further, I simply sum up: go, look, think ... and remember - "fire in the head" ...
