Yuri Muravitsky showed at CIM an unusual performance about family life Automatic translate

MOSCOW. In the Theater Center. Meyerhold held premieres of the original performance, which became the first work experience not so long ago at the CIM art residence Blackbox. Director Yuri Muravitsky presented a stage reading of the work of a modern French writer Fabien Iver.

The play was named based on the pun used in the French headline - "Dad leaves, mom lies, grandmother dies." The French version looks like “Papapart, mamanment, mememeurt”. The director uses a similar pun in the play, inviting the audience to think again about what constitutes an outwardly prosperous modern family.

Work in the framework of the art residence, according to Yuri Muravitsky, gave him the opportunity to create not just a spectacle that attracted the attention of viewers, but something new, experimental. The name of the project, translated as “Black Box”, is a designation of the modern type of scene that allows you to transform the space. The project allows its participants to look for options for a new artistic language, alternative relations with the auditorium.

Thanks to the participation of the director in the project, this peculiar performance received life. It is difficult to tell a complex text, like a diary of a teenager trying to understand what is happening in his family, in search of truth again and again returning to the same events, in ordinary stage language.

The director’s unusual stage move invites viewers to peep through the glass walls of an apartment over the life of an ordinary family. The author’s text, sounding from the outside, comments on what is happening, giving viewers the opportunity to independently evaluate the action on stage, to understand why families are so far from ideal.
