The stage features the fictional Volga town of Kalinov, where some very interesting inhabitants live against a dark, almost black background. In this director's version, Ostrovsky's texts dissolve into prayerful melodies, drum rhythms, operatic arias and flickering lightning. The characters are dressed in dark suits, surrounded by equally dark scenery, and the drum roar that accompanies the entire production creates an oppressive feeling of an approaching storm that is about to break out. This visual experiment is disconcerting, but makes the viewer fall in love with the magic of the transition from prayer to ditties, from darkness to light, from calm to whirlwind, immersing themselves in a palette of feelings and emotions.
The characters' lives are on the verge between heaven and hell, dark figures slowly move in the background, waiting for lightning or a thunderstorm, an eternal conflict between faith and unbelief, honor and dishonor. The play "The Storm" by Andrei Moguchy gives birth to deep reflections and self-irony in the soul. In many ways, this is possible due to his directorial approach and the desire to deliberately exaggerate and distort everything a little in order to show the truth. Thanks to the scenography, plot and musical accompaniment, the production gives rise to many meanings and references to other works of art.
