The Alexandrinsky Theatre invites you to the premiere of "The Government Inspector (Sequel)"! It was on this stage that Nikolai Vasilyevich Gogol's comedy premiered in 1836. The author himself actively participated in its production. Director Valery Fokin's version marks the return of the famous work to this theater stage and the director's fourth return to Gogol's masterpieces. Tickets for the play "The Government Inspector with a Sequel" are on sale now. Hurry and reserve the best seats for you and your loved ones. Director Valery Fokin staged "The Government Inspector" at the Alexandrinsky Theatre in 2002. The play ran to full houses for nearly 16 years.
This new interpretation of this comedy is close to musical vaudeville and is filled with relevant satire with a touch of bitterness. The lively plot of the comedy in this version is even more dynamic and captivating. Here, theater classics are combined with modern techniques, and the plot will certainly never lose its relevance.
The leading roles are played by renowned actors. The role of Khlestakov went to Tikhon Zhiznevsky, and the Mayor will be played by Sergei Parshin. Both actors were involved in the previous successful version of the production, as well as other theater artists you will see on stage this evening.
The premiere of the updated "The Government Inspector with a Continuation" will be a landmark event of this theater season. Be sure to add this performance to your must-see list!
