The performance of “Cyrano de Bergerac” is dedicated to the 150th anniversary of the birth and the 100th anniversary of the memory of the French playwright Edmond Rostand, as well as the 400th anniversary of the birth of one of Rostand’s best plays, a French poet, playwright, philosopher, writer, forerunner of the scientific genre fiction Cyrano de Bergerac. For the embodiment of stage conception, the producers use the cross-hair of the methods of filming and theatrical performance as a synthesis of the historical paradigm and modernity. Therefore, the main stage reception and decision is a kind of “film shooting” based on the heroic comedy “Cyrano de Bergerac”.
The scenography of the performance combines soft scenery and the use of screens, which allows you to convey the beauty of what is happening. The elements of convention emphasize that the action actually unfolds in a film studio. Professional operators are involved in the production, who in real-time mode are filming what is happening on stage, actively using close-ups of actors, which undoubtedly reinforces the dramatic effect of being present in the scene. This technique combines vivid historical scenes and costumes with modernity, theatrical play with authenticity, using video cameras and online broadcasting displayed on screens, which, together with special kinophones and landscapes, will become the decoration of the performance.
