Destruction and revival of family ties – This is the topic touched upon by the play “One Summer of One Year.” on the Main Stage of the Bolshoi Drama Theater named after G. A. Tovstonogov. He takes viewers into a story about family discord and reconciliation, thanks to which even the most different generations manage to find a common language.
This vibrant production is based on the famous play by American playwright Ernest Thompson entitled “On Golden Lake.” Its film adaptation in 1981 became a real event: Henry Fonda, Katharine Hepburn and Jane Fonda shone in the film, and the playwright himself received Oscar and Golden Globe awards.
On March 4, on the stage of the Bolshoi Drama Theater named after G. A. Tovstonogov, the main characters, elderly spouses Norman and Ethel Thayer, come to life thanks to the talent of People's Artists of the USSR Oleg Basilashvili and Alisa Freundlich. Their acting skills will amaze everyone, and in the design of the performance you will find motifs of the most famous romantic artist Andrew Wyeth.
Producer Andrey Prikotenko delicately reveals his idea: “At the center of history – smart, ironic hero – Professor of Slavic Studies at the American University at the turn of the century. And we will try to tell a poignant story about him, about his family, about the Golden Lake, on the shores of which the play takes place.”
