Sergey Zhenovach, director: «From the very beginning, we did not want to take the path of merely illustrating the plot. Instead, we preferred to delve into the concept of the novel and then invent our own stage reality. When we composed this play, the use of the drafts and different issues of this great novel helped us a lot».
