The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui

Bertolt Brecht

Director: Dmytro Bogomazov

Berthold Brecht came up with the idea of his play in 1935, in America, in forced emigration. At that time, in his native country, in Germany, Nazism had already been ascending but no one knew how huge it would become. Brecht implemented his idea only six years later. In 1941, when the play was finished, Germany had already invaded most of continental Europe – a large-scale and bloody war was spreading across the world. Brecht foreboded the upcoming catastrophe and tried to warn about it. “The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui” is a satirical anti-fascist pamphlet on Hitler and his...

based on the play by Tadeusz Dołęga-Mostowicz "Career of Nykodym Dyzma"

Director: Dmytro Chyrypiuk

He has neither education nor specialty, and the only thing he wants is to find a cushy job to live calmly and prosperously, if possible, with little effort.

Peer Gynt

Henrik Ibsen

Director: Ivan Uryvskyi

Dedicated to Serhii Danchenko and Bohdan Stupka The dramatic poem “Peer Gynt” (1867) by Henrik Ibsen is considered to be one of the greatest achievements of the world drama. It seems to have absorbed all the cross-cutting issues and themes that have troubled humanity for centuries: what the meaning of human life is, what the sacramental “being yourself” means, how not to betray yourself in search of the true purpose, how to find the strength to resist a variety of temptations that are always somewhere near you. As a large-scale philosophical canvas implies, the plot of the play is expansive and...

Richard ІІІ

William Shakespeare

Director: Avtandil Varsimashvili

One of the main topics for the authors of the performance was the meticulous study of the essence of dangerous and incomprehensible labyrinths of the psychology of a lonely person, humiliated both by nature and by others. There is the dialectics of transforming suffering into criminality and tyranny. Paradoxically, Richard's disability gives him inner freedom and a whimsical sense of power over people, in the director's interpretation. Richard is the hermit. He is deprived of real feelings. And as a skillful master of puppets and virtuoso actor, he starts the “fun” created by his sick mind. The thrill of the...
