Maly Theater leaders talked about plans for next season

MOSCOW. The staff of the Maly Theater finished the theater season with the premiere of the Masquerade performance on June 29th. The next day, June 30, was the first day for the theater staff. The actors will return to work on September 4th and immediately go on tour.

Since reconstruction is ongoing in the main building of the theater, upon returning to the capital, artists of the Maly Theater will wait for spectators on Bolshaya Ordynka, in the theater branch. For some productions, the MAI Culture Center and the Moskvich CC will provide their stage. The first performance shown by the Maly Theater team in Moscow, according to a long tradition, will be “Woe from Wit”.

On the closing day of the season, a meeting was held between theater leaders and the press. At the press conference, they talked a lot about the team’s plans for the next season. Since in April the main stage was closed for reconstruction, the theater made many tours. The performances of the Maly Theater have already been seen by residents of Surgut, Sochi, Nizhny Novgorod and several other cities.

The new season will also begin with a tour. According to Yuri Solomin, the first tour will take place in September. The theater team will go to Chelyabinsk. During this war, the Maly Theater was evacuated in this city. Upon returning to their hometown, the actors decided that every five years the theater would bring its best works to Chelyabinsk. The promise is fulfilled today.

In Moscow, the theater season of the Maly Theater will begin in October. The first performance of the 259th season will be "Catherine’s Theater", staged based on the play of Radzinsky. Viewers will see the new work of Yuri Solomin - the stage embodiment of the play "The Youth of Louis XIV", written by Dumas father. The premier is also waiting for the children - on October 5 they will be shown the fairy tale “Cinderella”.
