It is not often that one encounters a production imbued at once with such affection for the original, such elegance and such lightness. In this sense, The Gift truly is a gift. And the Maupassant we see on stage is the real Maupassant.
Valeria Verbinina, Moskultura
Among the virtues of this production, conceived and created by a young team, are the tiniest details of facial expression, gesture and posture, filling the action with meaning and making the audience laugh with delight. […] The innuendo could hardly be more transparent, yet — remarkably for today’s stage — it remains entirely free of vulgarity or indecency.
Olga Strauss, Rossiyskaya Gazeta
At the Pyotr Fomenko Workshop they speak of love: carnal and platonic, base and sublime… But above all, never boring. The new production, The Gift, based on stories by Guy de Maupassant, is an extraordinarily light and delightful comedy with an unexpectedly lyrical, even tragic finale. […] The Gift is beautiful, rich in directorial invention and dance, celebrating the thirst for life and love, making us laugh heartily while also giving us something to think about.
Irina Petrovskaya-Mishina, Musecube
The exceptionally high standard of the acting deserves particular mention: every role is superbly performed, with both the dramatic and comic strands brought out to perfection. Another great strength of the production is the actors’ interaction with the audience: they are unafraid to speak to spectators and address them directly. The performance is complemented by wonderful music that fits its atmosphere perfectly.
Vera Kulichenkova, Musecube
