"Anna Karenina." Volume Two: Family Misfortune
The Mayakovsky Theatre has a grand premiere: five and a half hours of stage time, multi-layered meanings, outstanding scenery, strong acting work. "Anna Karenina." Volume Two directed by the artistic director of the theater Yegor Peregudov is a rare example of the resulting grand performance. This is not so much a colorful story about the secrets of passion in tsarist Russia as a stubborn and honest attempt to understand what motivates people who do not cope with the happiness of mutual feelings. Someone such a theater of great style may seem too detailed, deliberate, but Peregudov is always loyal to the author whom he chose. Tolstoy dictates such a theater - unhurried, polyphonic, psychological.
