On April 29 at the VEF Palace of Culture, at 19:00, the play 'Banquet in Paris' will take place - a witty comedy about love, marriage, and other 'inconveniences' based on the play by Neil Simon.
...For dinner at a luxurious Parisian restaurant, people of various professions and social statuses are invited. A failed writer who has not sold a single novel, a brazen socialite, a famous writer, a successful businessman, a ditzy actress, and a struggling artist. What could unite these people?
To their astonishment, the guests discover that they are all ex-spouses who are divorced. And now they are locked in one room by a mysterious puppeteer. The unresolved contradictions accumulated in each marriage spill out, creating a storm of emotions filled with sarcasm, love, fear, hope, and sexual attraction. It turns out that not everything is in the past. Emotions revive with new strength, engulfing the characters.
The elegance and humor of Neil Simon perfectly fit our reality. The questions voiced by the characters in the play are familiar to almost everyone who has ever been married or in a relationship. The success of this play has been confirmed by the audience's applause in many countries around the world for many years.
The producer of the play is Igor Levin (Israel), the director is Boris Bogdanov (Estonia), featuring an international cast: Taisiya Sidorenkova, Sergey Rymar, Boris Bogdanov, Olga Oliynik, Anna Myachenko, and Maxim Terletsky.
The play will be performed in Russian.
