The cynic of our time in the play by Evgeny Pisarev based on Molière's work. For his production, director Evgeny Pisarev commissioned a new translation by Sergey Samoylenko. The result is a sharp text filled with irony and wordplay. The action of the play takes place in modern France, and the staging is done in a realistic manner. The main character Tartuffe in Pisarev's version is an "anti-Mishkin". He appears not just as a fraudster, but as a cynic who uses moral teachings as a weapon. The director himself defines the genre of his play as a family dramedy, reminiscent in style of the series "Succession". The events unfold in the home of a large but very unpleasant family, and the audience will witness situations that are instantly recognizable and relatable to the modern viewer.
