SUMMARY:The Blizzard
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:In Serebrennikov’s production as in Sorokin’s text\, the bl
 izzard is the main character. It has many voices\, most of which are femal
 e. It leads the way\, sometimes into temptation. It scolds\, dances and si
 ngs\; it withdraws into silence\; and it raises momentous questions. It ca
 sts coldness over everything\, along with a pall of sleep that must not be
  surrendered to. It takes us to the epicentre of a blinding brightness. Wh
 iteout conditions. The horizon disappears and earth and sky merge as one. 
 The world as we know it disappears: its colours and shapes\, landmarks\, c
 ontrasts and contours all vanish. We find ourselves in the middle of an in
 finitely expansive\, completely empty white space and lose our balance.\n\
 nThis dizzying state of absolute disorientation defines the atmosphere of 
 Kirill Serebrennikov’s production. An existential cabaret that plunges t
 he audience into a world spinning out of control.\n\nWhere is down\, where
  is up? Where should I go? Why go on at all? How will it end? With death o
 r salvation?Kirill Serebrennikov: »Snow. Small horses. A glass pyramid. T
 he path. Infinity. Longing. Storm. The nothing. Dream. Deception. Wind. Gi
 ants. Darkness. Doubt. Frozen time. Mistake. The lost world. Zombies. The 
 vaccine. Destiny. Struggle. Death. Ice space. Redemption?«
