安菲特律翁

The constellation of the best actors of the Vakhtangian stage: Sergey Makovetskiy, Maxim Sukhanov, Marina Aronova, Vladimir Simonov, presents a fine philosophic comedy by Moliere “Amphitryon” produced by Vladimir Mirzoev. Jupiter, having descended from Olympus and slain by the beauty of Alcmene (Anna Dubrovskaya), young wife of a Theban general Amphitryon (Sergey Makovetskiy), appears before her in the likeness of her husband, but soon the real Amphitryon comes back from war … Further actions develop on the background of a series of funny and awkward situations that take place in the house of the deceived general and where Amphitryon himself, Alcmene, his servants – Sosia (Vladimir Simonov) and Cleanthis (Maria Aronova) and gods themselves take part. An antique comedy about matrimonial relationships by no means lost its timely character, it is as contemporary now as it was several centuries ago. Without backing out of his personal style suggests that spectators dive into this Greek myth, and the images of ironic and captivating Amphitryon-Makovetskiy and mocking Mercury-Sukhanov, unlucky Sosia-Simonov and love-languish Cleanthis-Aronova reveal the true point of events.
