In the theater to them. Ermolova put the "Examiner" silent, but dancing

MOSCOW. Many directors undertook the production of the famous Gogol’s “Inspector General”. Some showed the audience a classic version of the play, while others carried its effect today. However, in each of these productions, the heroes of The Examiner pronounced a text written by a famous writer. In the theater to them. Ermolova is already ready for the audience to see another “Inspector”, in which his director, director Sergei Zemlyansky, decided to completely abandon the words.

It is hard to believe that this great work, filled with humor and ingenious remarks, can be transferred to the stage, taking away the ability of the artists to talk. Sergei Zemlyansky decided to prove that the whole essence of the “Inspector” can be conveyed through movements. The director called the genre of his experimental production "plastic drama." To express their emotions, artists use only body plastic.

For artists who do not have a choreographic education, the work on the production turned out to be extremely difficult. One of the participants in the play, Kristina Asmus, playing Marya Antonovna, noted that it is very difficult to express the meaning of the replica only using movements, without using words. The actress believes that the participants in the play managed to do the impossible.

The performance of the performance also has its own characteristics - many doors through which the townspeople constantly go back and forth. Their position in society is shown using clothing and facial expressions. Each of the characters has its own secrets, brings its own gossip, creates intrigue. Great help in understanding what is happening on stage is provided by music. Behind the scenes of the stage is a real orchestra.

The theater believes that the public should like the performance. The audience will see the premiere of the unique “Examiner” on February 14-15.
