LOVE AND LENIN

The premiere took place on June 19th

Theater "Workshop" \  St. Petersburg

“Once, in the rooms that the Ulyanovs rented in Paris for a low fee, the translator Elizabeth Armand appeared. Relatives called her "Inessa". In demeanor, and in appearance, she was a real "Frenchwoman". Perhaps she could not be called a beauty, but one thing was certain - she was a charming, irresistible woman, and very soon Volodya switched to "you" with her ... "

The creators of the performance made an attempt to restore the picture of everyday life, the details of life in exile and possible episodes: Gorky's arrival from Italy, New Year celebrations, ice skating. From such short memories, a plot is assembled, which is based on the historical myth of a love triangle between Lenin, his wife and Inessa Armand. How could world history have turned around if Ulyanov had chosen love and happiness, and not revolution?
