Synopsis

A Russian language production of

Drive Your Plough Over the Bones of The Dead.

A hauntingly poetic and visually rich theatrical experience, crafted especially for the legendary Liya Akhedzhakova, one of the most iconic and beloved actresses of her generation. A philosophical fable based on the novel by Nobel Prize-winning Polish writer and poet OLGA TOKARCZUK.

Спектакль «Веди свой плуг по костям мертвецов» поставлен по роману польской писательницы Ольги Токарчук, нобелевской лауреатки по литературе. На первый взгляд перед нами — мистический детектив о загадочных убийствах в польской деревне, этакий лесной нуар. Но, если приглядеться, мы увидим пышный художественный букет, в котором есть и пронзительная поэзия, и едкая сатира, и тонкие психологические наблюдения.

В центре повествования — чудаковатая Янина Душейко, в одиночку выступающая против несправедливости и жестокости нашего мира; удивительная героиня, будто специально созданная для Лии Ахеджаковой. Лия Меджидовна остроумно и смело воплощает на сцене историю учительницы-пенсионерки, которая пытается распутать серию убийств, параллельно помогая своим друзьям — таким же чудакам, как и она сама.

Актриса и певица Муся Тотибадзе в этом спектакле играет роль «альтер эго» пани Душейко, исполняя песни на стихи Уильяма Блейка. Согласно сюжету, главная героиня обожает этого поэта, и именно строчкой из его произведения и назван роман и спектакль. Также в постановке задействован актёр Александр Феклистов.

Вас ждёт завораживающее путешествие: таинственные лесные создания, живая музыка, вереница узнаваемых человеческих типажей. Постановка «Веди свой плуг по костям мертвецов» говорит о самом важном: об ответственности человека перед миром и хрупкости жизни.
