The performance is based on the stories, poems, memoirs and diaries of Ivan Alekseevich Bunin.
This is a story in which the author becomes one of the characters. Memories flow into poems, poems into stories... Before us is a kaleidoscope of thoughts of the Russian writer and poet Ivan Bunin. This production is the fantasy of the creators of the play on the theme of Ivan Alekseevich’s perception of his stories from the “Dark Alleys” series: “Henry”, “Revenge”, “Muse”, “Cold Autumn”, “Dark Alleys”. The performance is a reflection on what this collection of stories was for the writer, on which Bunin worked in exile from 1937 to 1944 and which the author considered his best work.
The creators of the play were attracted by the story of the last years of I. A. Bunin’s life in Paris and Grasse, his relationship to his distant homeland, from which he was forced to leave. This is a conversation with today’s audience about what love is – love for a woman, love for one’s homeland.
The stories on which the performance is based are permeated with a nostalgic feeling... through a stream of consciousness... We will be transported back in time to the life that Ivan Buninyu wrote and remembered
In our play, Bunin the poet, prose writer and publicist reflects on who he is... And the answer is “I am a very Russian person.”
