Russian“Mutabor”
Bright, vivid performance was born as the consequence of the fusion of different open-air theatre genres: cabaret, circus, carnival. Performance - illusion, performance - deceit. Just like every phenomenon of the carnival culture. The street theatre as though puts on a mask of a circus and plays a show, as universal as a circus, clear to everyone - to children and adults and known by everyone from the childhood. Depth and simplicity, a farce and a melodrama are combined in the performance, which embodies aesthetics of the old Medrano circus, Federico Fellini’s circus with its immortal clowns. The clowns (the Pantalons) - demons of laughter, are the most important characters of the performance. Adults laugh, looking on them, children are afraid of them. They shock the audience with the old circus stamps, which get new significance every time.
Professional actor’s performing and deep understanding of the mechanisms of interaction with the audience are distinctive features of this sated show.
The performance needs no translation.
