Goodbye entertainer. 12+ Automatic translate

The staging of a good, funny and tragic play by Grigory Gorin was timed to coincide with the 71st anniversary of the lifting of the Siege of Leningrad and the 70th anniversary of the Victory.

The action takes place in the last peaceful days before the Great Patriotic War and captures its beginning. There are no great feats, battles, solemn slogans in the play, its heroes are civilians, and also creative professions: Singer and her husband Accompanist, Dancer, Magician, Sketch author, Drama Theater actor and their permanent leader - Entertainer. However, it was these non-military characters who were destined to soon be in enemy captivity and show the best human qualities.

The protagonist of the play, the “hereditary entertainer” Nikolai Burkini, bears the characteristic features of G. Gorin’s beloved dramatic image - the Jester philosopher and great comforter. It would seem that for an unprepossessing role in the entertainer? To entertain the audience, announce eminent artists, bind motley scenic numbers into a single concert action… However, the author entrusted this "little man" to talk about things that others do not dare or think about, to speak not edifyingly, but with a kind smile and sympathy for all troubles and injustices: “The time, however, is now not very… A difficult time! But after all, someone needs to be funny in difficult times, otherwise time becomes unbearable… "" I chose you, dear fellow artist, because you make people beautiful with your art, but now I really need it, "- admittedly in the play Girl Fan. It is no coincidence that it was the pop course of the Honored Artist of Russia Alexander Isakov who took up this production. At one time, the master of the course first embodied a number of Gorinsky plays in St. Petersburg theaters. He is close to the dramaturgy of G. Gorin in spirit, self-irony and “pain points”, and graduates of the Theater Academy pay tribute to all the artists who have gone to war.
