Despite the fact that in a scenario of the iconic Soviet
Comedy “Love and pigeons” on the eponymous play by Vladimir Gurkin,
to compare the number of those who watched this movie on TV and saw the theatrical version —
impossible. To put the famous story on stage takes a lot of nerve too loved in
people picture of Vladimir Menshov. But the producer Natalia Gromushkina and Director
Vasili Mishchenko decided to take a chance.
Yesterday on the stage of the teatrium on serpukhovka was closed
premiere of a new version of the play “Love and pigeons”. It was the first run productions
the audience, among whom were stars: Evdokiya Germanova, Catherine Arkharov, Anatoly Kotenev. The excitement of the distributors, producer, Director, actors were hard
the fact that the stalls were the heirs of the playwright, his wife and daughter.

The first action of course was a test for the emotions and for the actors and for
viewers. Willy-nilly passed the comparison of what happened in
the scene with the familiar to the details of the film, phrases which have become
winged. The role of Hope Kusakina played last night Olesya Zheleznyak (in
the film — Nina Doroshina), Basil kuzjakina — Anatoly Zhuravlev (in the film version
1984 — Alexander Mikhailov).
The first half hour the audience looked at each other: like — not like… But
then it was not important because the scene was born, completely different
history. Not exactly Comedy in its purest form, what is considered “Love and pigeons”. The audience
first heard brave and sometimes seditious against Soviet power dialogues
(for example, about the secret channel through which it was possible to swim from the Mediterranean
sea to the Caspian). In the film these conversations for obvious reasons was not included.

As the story was familiar to all viewers,
of course, all were waiting for adulterer’s Raisy rice Zakharovna loved that in the movie
once brilliantly played by Lyudmila Gurchenko. Yesterday that role was played by Olga Prokofiev. And, I must admit that it was a different Raisa Zakharovna — lonely woman
the verge of a nervous breakdown, whose solo pantomime in the scene after the departure of Basil
Kuzjakina (this is the finding of the Director) brought tears and applause.

In the new stage version of the role of neighbors — women Shura and uncle
MITI — played Mikhail Zhigalov and Raisa Ryazanova. In this case, the choice of Basil
Mishchenko is more accurate and justified. Because these actors, like their characters, about
seventy. But in the film Mitenko played Sergei Yursky, who at the time of filming
was 50 years, and the Sanya dear” Natalya Tenyakova — and at 40.
Decades difference with the characters concealed beneath age makeup.

The official premiere of the play “Love and doves”, in which
will be attended by other actors, are scheduled for mid-September. 13 for a reason…
September author of the play, Vladimir Gurkina would have turned 65 years old. But he died a few years earlier. All who are engaged in the play, I want to devote most premiere one who came up with
crazy family and loved by millions Kusakina phrase: “Lyudka,
and Lyudka!”, “Girl, shut the fuck up!”, “Lyudka, and what kind of pys pys?”, “It
otkudova to us is such a beautiful man covered?” and “Ugh, the village!”.
