«With immense gratitude to all the women in my life.»
Konstantin Khabensky
«For us, the main characters in ‘The Seagull’ are women,» says Konstantin Khabensky. «At the center are their love, selflessness, warmth, and attention towards men. And this attention can either lift men up to the stars or drive them into the ground and turn them into extinguished embers from an old fire.» This was also the case in the lives of great artists, writers, and composers. The story we will be telling on the stage of the Art Theatre is about normal human selfishness. Every person wants to be treated with attention, to be loved, to be heard. And not tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, but right now. This is ordinary selfishness. And in young characters, this is compounded by youthful maximalism."
On September 5, the performance will be accompanied by audio description. The audio description specialist is Ekaterina Negrutsa.
