Director Marina Brusnikina in recent years has been working exclusively with modern authors — it is important for her to hear the voice of the new generation, to present to the public their attentive look at our reality. Her new production is based on the play by Yulia Tupikina, one of the most sought-after young playwrights today.

Marina Brusnikina: “This story is a tragicomedy about Shakespearean passions boiling in one modern family. About the eternal striving of a man for something sublime and beautiful, for true love and happiness, for the heights of relationships, for passions and dramas set by Shakespeare.”
