MOSCOW. On August 15, the Gogol Center opens the theater season for the third time. The first performance of the new season will be “Russian Beauty”, staged in 2013 by the young director Zhenya Berkovich.

At the heart of the play is the novel of the same name by V. Erofeev - the story of a provincial who came to conquer the capital.

During the time remaining before the start of the repair, not only the best performances of the theater, but also the premieres will be shown. A gift to fans of the Gogol Center will be the renewed performance of the Fairies, which most recently were seen by spectators who visited the Platform venue.

At the end of August, the premiere of the play "Nine" staged by Sergei Vinogradov is planned on the small stage. The plot of this production will remind the audience of “Nine Days of One Year” - the famous film by Mikhail Romm, only the premiere’s action is transferred to the future.
