Tomsk mysticism: the poster of the main city theater disappeared from the main street of the city. In large letters, only three words were displayed on it: "Seryozha is very stupid." The performance with this name was intended to be presented to the audience on August 20. But something went wrong.
When the poster disappeared, the locals suggested that the matter is in location. Lenin Avenue is the largest transport artery of Tomsk, thousands of cars pass here daily. Including - and with numbers a *** mr. Nearby - the "White House" in which the governor sits. And the governor, so coincided, is the name of Sergei. Sergey Zhvachkin.
The version of the involvement of the head of the region in the removal of the posters was widely dispersed on social networks. And the popularity of this opinion is understandable: which Sergey will like the banner, casting doubt on his mental abilities?
But the spokesman for the governor Konstantin Karpachev, the participation of the head of government in history with the removal of the poster rejected: "We do not comment on fakes."
The drama theater later admitted that the poster was removed themselves: the banner, they say, need to be replaced, because the premiere of the play is tolerated.
According to the representative of the press service of Natalia Babenko, for the first time the Tomsk spectator saw the poster of the performance, and then his “draft option” back in 2019. Then the artists during the show raised funds for treatment with the Novosibirsk artist Lavrenty Sorokin. And, in fairness, the head of the region was also Sergey Zhvachkin.
“ The sketch of the performance was shown, no complaints came to us. When we worked in online mode, we posted with the consent of the author the recording of this sketch, people watched it. And so we decided to bring it to mind and put it in a repertoire. And they planned that in August there would be a premiere, but they did not calculate the time a little, and we needed time for revision. On this banner, which hung at the stop, there were dates. We shot a banner to put new dates, ”said Natalya Babenko.
It was Babenko that several years ago suggested that the local director Artem Kiselev put a play. According to the plot, couriers with a package come to the programmer Seryozha, but, having given it away, they do not leave home, but turn strange, absurd conversations. What is in the package - no one knows. “Refuse or accept it? I see that this is an opportunity that is given to a person ... There may be disputes of a Siberian ulcer or a gift of fate. ”
Until recently, the Tomsk public did not have any complaints about the name of the production. Everyone agreed that the lyrical hero was called one of the most popular Russian names. Nevertheless, they tried to clarify the situation with the removal of the posters on the official website of the regional department of culture, where they published a press release, which reported that the banner was removed due to the transfer of the premiere. It is not planned to cancel the performance yet.
But will the name remain?
