The drama Fairy Tales for Adults is set to unfold on stages in Moscow, according to information shared by the event’s press service. The production is scheduled to begin on the Theater stage on January 29, with subsequent showings at Mossovet on March 26, April 22, and May 20, and at Pushkin Theater as noted in the schedule. The work draws its material from a script by screenwriter Nadezhda Ptushkina, with direction by Mikhail Rakhlin.
The narrative follows a woman who has long paused her own life to care for her eccentric mother, who is bound to a wheelchair. The ordinary rhythm of their days is disrupted when an unexpected guest arrives at the house on New Year’s Eve, turning their world inside out.
The cast includes Galina Petrova, Inga Oboldina, Andrei Merzlikin, and Yulia Chebakova.
Speaking through Merzlikin, the production emphasizes a pursuit of a miracle. The core of the story centers on two adults who have stopped anticipating miracles, living a repetitive routine of work, home, and daily problems. In the performance, a chain of unforeseen events pushes them beyond their familiar boundaries, setting the stage for a moment of happiness to emerge.
Earlier, a public figure made a provocative remark about a star from the series The Boy’s Word, describing the actor in unflattering terms. This remark has been referenced in discussions about the show’s reception by audiences and critics alike. (citation: press service of the event)
