The play "Facing the Wall" at the G. A. Tovstonogov Bolshoi Drama Theater is a unique production based on the play by British playwright Martin Crimp. The plot centers on the study of human cruelty and the system of its control. The characters in the play "Emergency Reduction" act as both narrators and characters in stories about violence, trying to understand the causes of evil in seemingly ideal conditions.
Director Liza Doroniceva masterfully transports viewers into cramped rooms, where the action unfolds literally at arm's length. This creates a unique atmosphere, making viewers feel like direct participants in what is happening. The play takes place in confined spaces, and part of the action takes place in complete darkness, which enhances the effect of presence and emotional impact.
The production of "Facing the Wall" is not just a theatrical performance, but a deep immersion into the world of human emotions and experiences. The questions raised in the play make you think about the nature of evil and how we react to emergency situations.
