About

An Eastern fairy tale transforms here into a live stage adventure, where Persian music, artistic word, and sand animation work as a whole. The sound of the santur, ney, daf, and tombak makes the familiar plot brighter, while the visual images add softness and real magic to it. The story of Aladdin has long lived in culture as one of the most beloved Eastern fairy tales, but in this production, it unfolds not through the usual theatrical decoration, but through a rare combination of music, artistic word, and sand animation. This combination makes the program especially expressive: the audience does not just follow the plot, but gradually immerses themselves in its sound and visual world. Here, not just one spectacular technique is important, but the interaction of different arts, thanks to which the familiar story begins to sound softer, deeper, and more voluminous. The musical line is built around authentic Persian instruments, each of which has its own character. The santur provides ringing and delicacy, the ney adds breath and length, the tombak is responsible for rhythm and inner pulse, while the daf gives the narrative a ritual and almost hypnotic power. For the audience, this is particularly interesting because the music here does not serve as a simple background, but creates an independent space for the fairy tale. Through it, it is easier to feel both the beauty of the Eastern world and the mood of individual scenes, as well as the very intonation of the ancient tale. The artistic word, performed by Andrey Makarov, plays no less of a role. Thanks to him, the plot retains clarity, movement, and playful lightness, which is needed for a family format. At the same time, Anna Ivanova's sand animation makes the narrative visible: heroes, palaces, patterns, and magical transformations appear right before the eyes, constantly changing and seemingly flowing along with the music. Such a visual language works especially well with a young audience, but it also gives adults a rare feeling of a handcrafted miracle. Where to go in Moscow today will be told by our website.
