The classical production with elements of modern dramaturgy is interesting and understandable for the audience of any age.
Reflections on faith and morality are intertwined with a dizzying detective story, and from philosophy to murder, from Rodion Raskolnikov’s room to the house of an old pawnbroker, there are only 730 steps.
The action-packed nature of the production is combined with the philosophical questions about the freedom of the individual, foreshadowing existentialism. What price will Raskolnikov have to pay for every step he takes: towards himself or away from himself, towards God or unbelief, towards love or hatred?
Ivan Nikolaev, Alexander Rapoport and Elena Proklova in a performance based on the novel Crime and Punishment by F. M. Dostoevsky.
