The Blue Bird. Bliss
Синяя птица. Блаженство
This grand, sweeping production of Maurice Maeterlinck's tale by Boris Yukhananov is intertwined with the personal memories of veteran actors of the Stanislavsky Drama Theatre – Aleftina Konstantinova and Vladimir Korenev, who play the roles of Tyltyl and Mytyl.
In Part Three Tyltyl turns up in the Garden of Delights, but of all the Delights he most appreciates the warmth of the Home Hearth, where Mytyl awaits him. Korenev remembers touring to Ivanovo, where he nearly fell victim to a harem of seamstresses.
