Theater "Contemporary"

Chistoprudny Boulevard, d. 19 www.sovremennik.ru

Founded in 1956, during the thaw and exposure of the Stalin cult, Sovremennik was the first theater created by a free creative association of young actors. The theater was founded by Oleg Efremov, Galina Volchek, Igor Kvasha, Oleg Tabakov, Evgeny Evstigneev and Victor Sergachev, later other graduates of the Moscow Art Theater School joined them. They managed to return to the stage a simple person in which the viewer would recognize himself. The desire of the young theater to “speak with the contemporaries in the language of modernity” was joyfully accepted by the public, and soon “Sovremennik” became the favorite place of Muscovites. And now the theater is still very popular among Moscow viewers, so we advise you to buy tickets in advance to get to the selected performance. We recommend going to the "Hidden Perspective" by Eugene Arie, the legendary Five Evenings, directed by Alexander Ogarev and on Three Comrades by Galina Volchek. We assure you that you will fall in love with Sovremennik, where the very bewitching theatrical atmosphere is still alive.

In the vicinity of Moscow: the best automobile routes

Manor Arkhangelsk

Just 5 kilometers from Moscow is the Arkhangelskoye estate - a palace and park ensemble of the 18th-19th centuries, which, without exaggeration, can be called Versailles near Moscow. At various times, Arkhangelsk belonged to the princes Odoevsky, Golitsyn and Yusupov. Russian emperors and such prominent figures of Russian culture as A. S. Pushkin, P. A. Vyazemsky, A. I. Herzen, I. F. Stravinsky and many others came here. Ilyinskoye Highway divides the territory of the estate into two parts: on one there is a palace with an adjacent park, which is decorated with statues of the monarchs who visited the estate, and on the other - Apollon's Grove and the unique theater of the Italian architect Pietro di Gonzaga, where some of the original scenery has been preserved. Not far from Arkhangelsk is the Museum of Technology of Vadim Zadorozhny, representing a wonderful collection of vintage cars and motorcycles.

Peredelkino

Having rented a car, go to the writer town of Peredelkino, founded in 1934 at the request of Maxim Gorky. He convinced Stalin that writers needed to be provided with cottages, wherever they rested from the city rush and created their works. For several years, more than 50 wooden summer houses were built here, which were provided free of charge to writers for an unlimited period. The first to settle in Peredelkina were Isaac Babel, Ilya Erenburg, Boris Pasternak (there is a museum in his house on Pavlenko Street), Ilya Ilf, Evgeny Petrov and others. This is a quiet and relaxing place where you can come for a whole day to stroll along the writer's dachas, wander through the dense forest, and then relax on the terrace of the restaurant “Children of the Sun”, located in the Writers' Creative House. We also advise you to look into the house-museum of Bulat Okudzhava,

Dubrovitsy

The village of Dubrovitsy is known for its baroque church of the Sign of the Blessed Virgin Mary, which does not look at all like a classic Orthodox church. It was founded in 1690 at the direction of Prince Boris Golitsyn, the educator of the young Peter I. Dutch, Swedish, Polish and German masters participated in the construction of the temple, among them was Italian Dominico Trezzini, who later became the first architect of St. Petersburg. Due to the appearance of the temple, which traced the bias to Catholicism, local priests refused to light the building. Golitsyn solved this problem very simply: he invited Peter I and the Moscow Metropolitan Stefan Yavorsky to consecrate, with them the priests, of course, could not express their displeasure. The temple rises on a hill and stands out against the background of neighboring buildings with its unique architecture for the Russian tradition. It is best to come here on a rented car on weekdays, when there is not a soul around and you can enjoy the beauty of this unusual place in silence.

House-Museum of A.P. Chekhov in Melikhovo

Chekhov lived in Melikhovo for seven years, from 1892 to 1899, and during this time he wrote 42 works, including the plays “Uncle Vanya” and “The Seagull”, short stories and novels “Ward No. 6”, “The Man in the Case”, “The House with a mezzanine "," Gooseberry "," About Love "and others. After Chekhov left for Yalta in 1899, the estate was sold and forgotten for some time, until in 1940 a museum dedicated to the writer opened in Melikhovo. Of the buildings of the Chekhov era, an outbuilding has been preserved here, where the famous Seagull was created. The main house of the estate was rebuilt almost from scratch and furnished in the same way as it was during the writer's life. Walking around the picturesque territory of the estate, pay attention to the small wicker sheds: they still have old tarantulas and sledges, which Chekhov liked to ride around. The estate has the Chekhov Studio Theater, The basis of the repertoire is, of course, performances based on the works of Chekhov. Terraces and rooms of the main house are used as a stage - this gives the productions an even greater connection with the personality of the writer. Performances take place every Saturday, so we advise you to plan a train to Melikhovo on this particular day of the week.

Konstantinovo

On the picturesque bank of the village of Konstantinovo there is a museum-reserve of the poet Sergei Yesenin, who in his poems with great love and tenderness described the native land. It’s worth starting a walk in the museum with a small wooden house where the Yesenin family lived, now there is a museum of the poet. After this cozy house, go to the Kazan Church - Yesenin was baptized here, and then go to the Zemstvo school, where the good caretakers allow you to sit at the desk that the poet studied at. We also recommend that you look into the estate of Lydia Kashina, the prototype of the main character of the poem "Anna Snegina". If you want to see what real Russian open spaces look like, then you definitely need to come to Konstantinovo and plunge into the life and atmosphere of the beginning of the 20th century for several hours. It’s quite difficult to get to the village by public transport,

Instead of heavy wooden chairs - soft chairs and sofas upholstered in bright fabrics; large windows and chandeliers in the form of bottles from under the vodka fill the space with soft and warm light. The most important part of the interior is the glass atrium, which imitates the Ukrainian village courtyard, in which gold and diamond pheasants, peacocks, Yashka rabbit and Gavryusha goby coexist.
