The TheatreHD screening will present the stage version of Alexander Ostrovsky's play directed by Yegor Peregudov. On screen - the estate of Gurmyzhskaya, provincial actors Shchastlivtsev and Neschastlivtsev, sharp clashes of characters, money, lies, and attempts to break free from a system where everyone is forced to play someone else's role. The TheatreHD screening allows you to see the theatrical production up close: the camera captures the actors' reactions, the work of the space, pauses, and those details that are easily kept at a distance in the hall. At its core is Alexander Ostrovsky's play, but director Yegor Peregudov views the classic plot as a living conversation about choice, money, dependence, and a person's right not to conform to imposed rules. The action unfolds around the estate of the wealthy landowner Gurmyzhskaya. Two provincial artists arrive in this world - the comic Shchastlivtsev and the tragic Neschastlivtsev. They are poor, homeless, seemingly having lost to all the stable and prosperous characters, but their appearance disrupts the usual order. In "Stumps," everyone lies, bargains with feelings, exchanges youth for money, love for calculation, and their own dignity for a convenient place in someone else's system. Against this backdrop, the artists appear as strange and free people who can make those around them at least for a moment become themselves. Entertainment in Yekaterinburg is collected on our website.
