Omsk Theater "Gallery" showed a premiere performance based on a play by V. Sollogub Automatic translate

OMSK. The Galerka Drama Theater traditionally turned back to classical drama. On November 20, on the stage of the actor’s house, the audience saw the new work of the director Kirill Vitko “Deceived husband…”. The play was based on the play by V. Sollogub “Employees”. According to the director, who staged the fifth performance in the Gallery, the repertoire of the theater has a considerable number of serious productions, which is why it was decided to turn to the play easy and ironic.

The plot of the play tells about the problems faced by its main character, the landowner Groznov, who wished to please his wife with a home theater on his birthday. For this purpose, he invited two metropolitan writers to implement his plan with their help. A limited period of time, creative disputes and the formed love polygon turn the preparation for name day into a comedy filled with many funny situations.

The set designer was created by Oleg Belov. This is not the first time the artist has been working with Kirill Vitko; the creators of the play say that they enjoy working together. Stylized elements of the scenery give the public the opportunity to plunge into the atmosphere of theatrical production, and the costumes of the characters correspond to their characters.

Despite the lack of its own stage - this year the theater for the tenth time began the season on other people’s stages, the theater is constantly in full swing. Premieres are being prepared, the theater is touring a lot, receiving prizes at prestigious festivals. In early autumn, reconstruction of the old theater building began. The builders promise that by the 300th anniversary of Omsk, in 2016, the artists will celebrate a housewarming party in the renovated theater building. The immediate plans of the theater are to shoot television versions of their best productions.
