A vortex of memories with reflections on decency, traditions and honor.

Restaurant - a world full of temptations, on whatever side of the world you were. If you are having fun in the hall - you are seduced by luxury, idleness, a sense of sublimity over the world in general, and the presence of helpful waiters adds ghostly conceit.

And what about the flip side of this luxurious world? Who are they, these little "fussy" people? What becomes a temptation for them? Perhaps, someone dropped "five hundred" rubles?

And what are they living, inconspicuous, helpful waiters? Look, there's one, he has such an expressive face and eyes, what does he think?

Maybe all of his memories will start to appear behind him, like "background", forming into living pictures. After all, the main thing here is him.

He and his life against the backdrop of a "vague" revolutionary time, when any life's stability collapses under the pressure of strength, which not everyone can resist.

The son goes to the "revolutionaries", the daughter escapes from the house and the child gets accustomed, everything rolls down somewhere and how to stop all this is incomprehensible. And then there's the constant "bring - give".

And how can you maintain your inner dignity and not lose faith in life?

Cut off by scandals for years ... How stupid it is to offend each other!

The story of the life of one family from a small southern town. Heavy post-war years ... Poverty, hopelessness, despair. But there was love and tenderness! As without them.

Poor, single mothers cry a lot. Naughty children, not paying attention to adults, running around the streets, snapping and learning to give the offenders surrender.

Rachel is short-sighted, sharp-tongued, brisk and thievish. She never doubts anything and takes care of her loved ones too intrusively.

She is a sister, Zlota. Day after day, women live their hard life, sew dresses to order and cook soup, quarrel, make up, bring up young people, love and grow old.

The events of the big world with its shocks and troubles pass by them. They have their own world.

Three actions, eight paintings, 92 scandals.

The sisters have no one closer to each other.

"You can tell by eyes whether a person has money or not."

Zoe has a special scent for money. He knows everything at all costs and will not give himself up for offense.

She dreamed of making a lot, and then going to Paris. She saw this city only in a dream.

And in the Soviet Moscow of the thirties, the ladies do not live sweetly. Beautiful outfits in the afternoon with fire do not get - you can only sew.

So Zoya conceived in her cozy apartment to open a sewing workshop for sewing fashionable dresses and working clothes for the proletariat.

But this is for a diversion of eyes. A lot of money will be brought to her by the visiting house. And her assistants are one better than the other - a charming rascal and a former lover.

She organizes cheerful parties with them.

Scammers are always there. They reported to whom it follows that Zoya is a "socially dangerous type". Caring is full of mouth.

But trouble does not come alone. She's got a commercial director killed in her apartment!

Now she can not escape arrest. I cried her apartment!

The wicked sorcerer disliked the gentle, beautiful fairy and bewitched her! From now on, the fairy is a little defenseless girl. She lives in the forest ... Who will help her to regain her former appearance?

Only those who are brave in heart and are able to do good deeds unselfishly, can save the fairy from the spell. Yes, that's just not everyone will pass such a test, because those who help others free of charge and with a pure heart, not so much in this world. And all those who showed cowardice are imprisoned by a sorcerer ...

Will the lumberjob Goran manage to go through hard trials and help the fairy?

How much does love cost.

Everything is sold and everything is bought. Everything has a price. Everyone has a price. The market economy has penetrated into the world of human relations.

He sold his dream. And what did you want to become as a child? A cosmonaut, a cook, a fireman, a teacher? Most likely, they chose noble professions.

And he so dreamed of becoming a scientist! Represented himself in the ghostly light of a laboratory with a test tube in his hand. In a dream, I dreamed of science.

But it was necessary to keep an old father. Therefore I had to serve not the science, but the state. In the end, to become a policeman is to work for the benefit of society.

Now the father is dead. Empty apartment is covered with dusty furniture. Here it is, an inheritance. All that remains of a loved one. It's time to appreciate everything.

But, the more the appraiser lingers, considering the price, the clearer it is that how much is past and present, successes and failures.

Three hammer blows. Sales!

"Listen, children: there was a cat in the world, overseas, Angora" and, as it should be for overseas cats, she was glamorous and liked to boast of her refinement: she invited neighbors: a goat with a goat, a rooster with a chicken, a pig, boasted, that he knows how to sing, that the house has beautifully furnished.

Only their nephews, the kittens of minors, did not invite me and did not drink tea: she did not like beggars, who are staggering around the city, they are begging for food.

So the cat's house stood, until it burned down. And how burnt, so suddenly it turned out that there was nowhere to go to the cat! Only to the nephews, whose house - one name: there is no roof, the floors have been eaten by the mouse ...

The woman Dog tamed, lured him with a sweet bone, now the Dog will sit on a leash and guard the dwelling, now he - along with the Man, lives in his family. Now he is home.

The woman has tamed the cow: the cow was tempted by a succulent grass, fragrant hay, has agreed to stand in a stall, to give to the person milk, to be - a domestic cow.

I tamed the Horse, now the Horse serves the man, there was also the horse once-wild, but became-home.

And Cat? It would be useful to tame a cat, she would catch mice and cradle a child, rumble and mourn, sing songs to him ... Yes, only how will you tame it, masterful? She walks by herself ...

Together - more fun! And the rain is afraid to be more cheerful, and the echoes to be called out, and the secret language to invent ...

And it's impossible to divide singly and singly into singles, it's absolutely necessary to have a comrade there!

In general, without a friend anywhere. Therefore, the kitten Gav and the puppy made friends. Now they go to visit each other and walk together.

Where it became more interesting to live! It is necessary, say, a puppy for a cutlet to hide. Then the kitten will help him: hide it in the stomach, and deal with the end. No one will find a cutlet anymore, no one will take it!

Oliver Sachs was a neuropsychologist and worked all his life with people suffering from various disorders and abnormalities: who stopped feeling his body, who curses and twitches without end, and someone, perhaps, does not even recognize his wife and accepts his hat! ..

But, probably, the world would never know about the incredible tricks that his brain can make with a man if Oliver Sachs did not have one more important talent - the ability to beautifully and breathtakingly describe all that he had seen as a doctor. Yes, he was a writer. According to his book, this performance was staged.

Freaks, crazy, strange, awkward people - all the characters here are special. They are touching and touching in their attempts to master this world, to understand which glove should be worn on which hand ...

This is the deep human message of the play, partly ironic, a little sad, but certainly kind, calling us to observe special people simultaneously and with the impartial position of the curious scientist, and from the deeply experienced, compassionate person.
