A lady with a dog

The premiere of the Polo Premiere announced that the “Lady with the Dog” is the second part of the Ginkas trilogy according to Chekhov “Life is Beautiful”. The first was the Black Monk, the third will be the Rothschild violin. It seems that any other director could name a series of his performances “Life is beautiful”, or most likely - Peter Fomenko. But not Ginkas, for which existential despair and gloomy pessimism are building materials of creativity. The world is hostile to his hero, surrounding the vulgar, and to go through suffering and fight for happiness is given only in order to make sure that all this is pointless and hopeless. Is life beautiful? This is an evil mockery.

Again, as in the Black Monk, the artist Sergei Barkhin put the audience on the balcony, immediately a wooden platform sprinkled with yellow sand - this is a scene and a planned embankment. In the distant depths of the black hall, against the background of the blue screen, as if in the sea, black silhouettes of boats are visible. Because of the edge of a wooden cliff, as because of the high shore, the heads or legs of swimwear in striped suits appear, as if a wave is shaking them. Four characters are three clowns and a pretty girl. All young, vulgar beach cavaliers pester the girl, and she flirts, laughs and brushes away from them for a look. Life is beautiful while you are stupid. One of the clowns will be Gurov (Igor Gordin), the girl - Anna Sergeevna (Julia Lyozhakova). Clowns will be called "overlooking the resort."

Then the heroes will put light summer suits over the swimsuits, and a resort novel will begin, at first similar to a thousand of the same: a woman rushes around her neck, then cries, the man is persistent, then mockingly lazy. Ginkas, as in the Black Monk, does not break the story into dialogs. The entire author’s text with deviations and thoughts of Gurov was given to the heroes, and a detached, rational look cools the flaring up love story. Metaphors of love become
