Performance "Moi vnuk Veniamin" (ru) in Paris 30 October 2023

Meet Liya Akhedzhakova in Paris in the title role in the play "Moi vnuk Veniamin”

"Moi vnuk Veniamin" is a fascinating story about family relationships that concerns the main character Esther. Her life is permeated with memories of the past, where the traditions and orders of childhood remain in her memory. Esfira is strong and used to deciding everything for others, but her attempts to find a suitable bride for her son are unsuccessful. However, when she decides to go to her native Bobruisk and bring a young beauty, her future "proven” bride, her carefully planned world suddenly falls apart. Esther's son opposes the arranged marriage, and the bride turns out to be not what she seemed...

The performance perfectly embodies the classic confrontation between "fathers” and "sons”. This funny and at the same time touching story about maternal love, capable of both creating beauty and destroying everything around.

Lyudmila Ulitskaya wrote this funny and touching story in the late 80s, and it remains relevant today. Themes of relationships between generations, national issues and the depth of the human soul will always be interesting for viewers.

The duration of the performance is 1 hour 50 minutes, without intermission.

The performance was first presented in July 2015. Since then, "Moi vnuk Veniamin” has been successfully shown in different countries of Foggy Albion to the Far East. The play toured twice in the USA and Canada, and successfully performed in Israel, the Baltic states and Belarus.

And finally, Paris!
