Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are dead in Saint Petersburg, Theater on Vasilyevsky

The tragicomic play "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" was written by Tom Stoppard, one of the main legislators of the theater of the absurd, in the middle of the last century. This work continues to attract the attention of directors even in the most ambiguous historical periods. "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead" is the first play to present a postmodernist view of Shakespeare's world from an unexpected angle.

In Galina Saltzman's play, which will be shown at the Vasilievsky Theater on two days - December 7 and 8, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern appear to us as modern everyday people. Drawn into the spinning vortex of circumstances not of their own free will, they unsuccessfully try to find a way out of the theater of Shakespearean passions.

"In difficult times, there is a growing interest in the theater of the absurd. But despite the outward realism of the situation, we, like Stoppard, merely present a model of the world. Everything that happens in the play is only a performance, only a theater," Galina Zaltsman shared her thoughts.
