A play based on the works of O. Henry - the founder of the genre "tale of the big city." O. Henry is a master of the short story genre. In his works, the writer infused humor, endless love for people, and philosophical meanings. Each of his stories is an atmospheric sketch from the lives of urban dwellers, New Yorkers, where simple everyday events intertwine with miracles. The play, imbued with a New Year's atmosphere, was staged in the Vakhtangov Studio by Anna Gorushkina. The director has already made a name for herself in another play based on short prose - "Platonov. Stories," which was loved by audiences and received high praise from critics.
