Mayakovsky mystery buff summary. "Mystery buff" - the embodiment of the ideas of new art

In the book, the author talks about the revolution. At the beginning of the Great October Revolution, the writer asked himself one question: "to participate or to refuse revolutions." The author participated in the revolution in Smolny. For the revolution, he wrote poetry in the form of satire, ditties and epigrams, feuilletons.

Creation "Mystery - Buff" was written in the comedy genre. Comedy helped to sing of working people in the days of capitalism. Creation has a satirical and epic character. Comedy embodies the spirit of a new generation of art. The comedy story includes such attributes as the flood, heaven, ark and hell. In addition, the devil Beelzebub and Saint Methuselah are indicated in the comedy. The work also describes a religious drama.

Social quarrels in the work are indicated in the form of "7 pairs of unclean." The 7 unclean forces include a blacksmith, a miner, a machinist, a laborer, a carpenter, a Red Army soldier, a laundress and a driver. At the end of the fight with "7 pairs of unclean" can destroy hell, overthrow God, destroy destruction, repair locomotives and much more. All actions in the book are described with wit and author's irony. The relevance of such a work is provided by Mayakovsky's utopian forecasts. During the revolution, this genre gained great relevance.

MYSTERY-BUFF

HEROIC, EPIC AND SATIRICAL IMAGE OF OUR AGE

Second option

"Mystery-buff" - the road. Revolution road. No one can predict with accuracy what other mountains we will have to blow up, going this way. Today the word "Lloyd George" is boring into the ear, and tomorrow the British themselves will forget his name. Today, the will of millions is rushing towards the commune, and in fifty years, perhaps, the air dreadnoughts of the commune will rush to attack distant planets.

Therefore, leaving the road (form), I again changed parts of the landscape (content).

In the future, all those who play, stage, read, print Mystery Buff, change the content - make its content modern, today's, momentary.

PROLOGUE

Unclean

After a minute
we will show you...
Mystery buff.
I have two words to say:
This
thing is new.
To jump above your head
need someone to help.
Before new play
a prologue is needed.
Firstly,
Why
Is the whole theater destroyed?
well-meaning people
this is very annoying.
Why do you go to shows?
To enjoy -
is not it?
Is it a pleasure to watch
if the pleasure is only on the stage;
scene-
only one third.
Means,
V interesting performance,
if you build everything
then your pleasure will be tripled,
and if
performance is uninteresting
it's not worth watching
and one third.
For other theaters
it doesn't matter to represent
for them
scene -
keyhole.
Sit, they say, quietly,
straight or oblique
and see someone else's life piece.
Look and see -
groaning on the couch
Aunt Mani
Yes Uncle Vanya.
And we are not interested
no uncle, no aunt,
you will find aunts and uncles at home.
We will also show real life,
but she
turned into an extraordinary spectacle by the theatre.
The gist of the first step is:
the earth is flowing.
Then - stomp.
Everyone is fleeing the revolutionary flood.
Seven pairs of unclean
and pure seven pairs,
that is
fourteen poor proletarians
and fourteen bourgeois bar,
and between them
with a couple of tearful cheeks -
Mensheviks.
The pole is overflowing.
The last shelter is crumbling.
And everybody starts to build
not even an ark
but the ark.
In the second act
the audience travels in the ark:
here you have autocracy
And democratic republic,
and finally
overboard,
under the Menshevik howl,
the clean ones were thrown headfirst.
The third act shows
that the workers
nothing to be afraid of
even devils in the middle of hell.
In the fourth -
laugh harder! -
heavenly places are shown.
In the fifth act, devastation
wide open mouth,
crushes and eats.
Though we worked for a hungry belly,
but us
ruin was conquered.
In the sixth act -
commune -
the whole hall
sing at all throats!
Look in all eyes!
All is ready?
And hell?
And heaven?
Because of the stage.
Ready!
Let's!

STEP ONE

At the glow of the northern lights, the globe of the earth, resting with its pole against the ice of the floor. Ropes of latitudes and longitudes cross with ladders all over the globe. Between two walruses propping up the world, an Eskimo hunter, with his finger on the ground, yells at another, stretched out in front of him by the fire.

Hunter

Hey!
Hey!

Fisherman

bawl.
There is no other business -
poke the ground with your finger.

Hunter

Fisherman

Where is the hole?

Hunter

Fisherman

What is flowing?

Hunter

Fisherman (jumping up, running up and looking under the clamping finger)

Oh-oh-oh-oh!
The work of unclean hands.
Crap!
I'll go warn the polar
circle.

Runs. A German squeezing out his sleeves jumps on him from behind the slope of the world. He looks for a second for a button and, not finding it, grabs the fur of a fur coat.

German

Ger Eskimo!
Ger Eskimo!
Terribly fast!
A couple of minutes...

Fisherman

German

So - today I'm sitting in my restaurant
on Friedrichstrasse.
In the window the sun
so it beckons.
Day,
like a bourgeois before the revolution, is clear.
The audience is seated
and quietly sheidemanit.
I've eaten soup
I look at bottle eiffels.
Think:
what kind of beef should I take?
And shall I take up the beef?
I'm watching -
and lunch stuck in my throat:
something is wrong with the Alley of Victories.
Stone Hohenzollerns,
standing between daisies,
suddenly flew upside down.
Hum.
I run to the roof.
Beating around the tavern skeleton,
waterless surf,
hustle and bustle
fled,
flooded the quarters.
Berlin is a disturbing sea of ​​delirium,
invisible waves bass notes.
And for
and over,
and under,
and pre-
dreadnought houses!
And before I could spread my thoughts,
Is it from Foch, or from...

Fisherman

German

I am all
wet to the thread.
I'm watching -
everything is dry
but it pours, and it pours, and it pours.
And suddenly,
the ruins of Pompeii more pompous, painting
opened up -
rooted
Berlin was torn out
and drowned in the abyss,
at the world in a molten forge.
I woke up on the crest of current villages.
I collected all my yacht club experience, -
and so
in front of you
dearest,
All,
what is left of Europe now.

Fisherman

N-n-a little...

German

Relax, of course...
day-to-two-s.

Fisherman

Yes, you say without these European yuleniya!
What do you need? It's not up to you.

German (showing horizontally)

Let me near your esteemed
seals.

The fisherman waves angrily at the fire, goes in the other direction - to warn the circle - and stumbles upon wet Australians running out from behind another slope.

Fisherman (retreating in surprise)

And there were no more disgusting faces ?!

Australian with wife. (together)

We are Australians.

Australian.

I am Australian.
We had everything.
How-to:
platypus, palm tree, porcupine, cactus!..

Australian (crying in surging feeling)

And now
we disappeared
everything is lost:
and cacti,
and platypuses,
and palm trees
everything sank...
everything at the bottom...

Fisherman (pointing to the sprawling German)

Here, go to them.
And then they are alone.

Getting ready to go again, the Eskimo stopped, listening to two voices from two sides the globe.

Kettle, wow!

Second

Cylinder, wow!

First

Getting stronger!
Hold on to north latitude!

Second

Get angry!
Grab the south longitude!

On the ropes of latitudes and longitudes, an Englishman and a Frenchman roll down from the globe. Everyone hoists a national banner.

Englishman

The banner has been hoisted.
I am the owner full in the snowy bosom.

Frenchman

Englishman (laying out some goods)

No - mine
I am already trading.

Frenchman (getting angry)

No - mine
and you yourself look for another.

Englishman (furious)

Ah well!
Yes, to die!

Frenchman (furious)

Ah well!
I'll put a bump on your nose!

Englishman (climbs with fists on the French)

England hip hip!

Frenchman (climbs with fists on an Englishman)

Viv la France!

Australian (rushes to separate)

Well, the people!
Not the people, but pure rabble:
no more empires
no imperials
and they are still punching each other in the face.

Fisherman

Eh, you
imperialists!

German

Drop that you, right!

Fisherman

Well, a horde!

Right on the head of the newly gathered Eskimo, our merchant is thrown down.

Merchant

venerable,
this mess!
Am I Asia?
"Destroy Asia" - the decision of the Council of Ministers.
Yes, I was not an Asian!
(Calming down a little.)
Yesterday in Tula
I sit quietly in a chair.
How the doors will burst!
Well I guess -
from Cheka!
I have, you know,
her cheek turned pale.
But
God is merciful in the world:
It turns out that not Cheka is the wind.
It scratched a little
then it went
further more,
more - higher
poured into the streets
roofs blew...
All
Quiet!
Quiet!

Frenchman

Do you hear?
Do you hear the thud?
Lots of approaching voices.
Flood! flood! flood! about the flood! flood!

Englishman (horrified)

Oh my God!
Misfortune - like from a drainpipe,
And then there's this Eastern question.

In front of the negus, behind him - a Chinese, a Persian, a Turk, a rajah, a priest, a compromiser. The procession is closed by all seven pairs of impure ones pouring in from all sides.

Negus

At least a little blacker than snow, sir,
but nonetheless
I am an Abyssinian Negus.
My respect.
I have now left my Africa.
The Nile meandered in it, a boa-river.
How the Nile was furious, squeezing the kingdom into a river,
and drowned my Africa in it.
Although there is no name
but nonetheless…

Fisherman (annoyingly)

…but nonetheless
my respect.
Heard, heard!

Negus

Please don't forget
negus speaks to you,
and the negus wants to eat.
What is this?
Must be a delicious dog?

Fisherman

Negus mistakenly tries to sit on Lloyd George's walrus, which looks like two drops of water.

Fisherman

Go sit down, but don't get anyone dirty.

Englishman (frightened)

Fisherman (addressing others)

What about you?

Chinese

Nothing!
Nothing!
Drown my China!

Persian

Persia,
my Persia went to the bottom!

Rajah

Even India,
heavenly India, and that one!

Pasha

And only one memory remains of Turkey!

A lady breaks out of the crowd of clean ones with an infinite number of cartons.

Lady

Be careful!
Don't tear!
Silk is thin!

(to the fisherman.)

Man
help put up the boxes.

She's so sweet!
What a spicy!..

Fisherman

The parasite is idle!

Frenchman

What nation will you be?

Lady

My nation is the most diverse.
First was Russian -
Russia has become narrow to me.
These Bolsheviks are such a horror!
I am a graceful woman
with a subtle soul -
I took and became an Estonian.
The Bolsheviks began to press on the outskirts -
I became a citizen of Ukraine.
They took Kharkov ten times -
I settled down in some republic in Odessa.
They took Odessa, Wrangel in the Crimea -
I took and obeyed him.
They drove the whites across the sea and across the field -
I'm already Turkish
Walking around Constantinople.
The Bolsheviks began to come closer -
and I'm a Parisian.
I walk in Paris.
Forty nations have changed, I confess, I -
now I have a Kamchatka nation.
What a lousy summer at the poles:
you can not show any toilet!

Fisherman (yells at clean)

Quiet!
Quiet!
What is this hum?

Compromiser (hysterically separated from the crowd)

Listen! -
I can't!
Listen!
What is it?
There is no dry place in the world!
Listen!
Leave me alone!
Let me go home
to the office!
Listen!
I can't!
I thought there would be a flood according to Kautsky.
And the wolves are full
and the sheep are whole.
And now -
people are killing each other.
Lovely reds!
Lovely whites!
Look, I can't!

Frenchman

Don't rub your eyes...
don't bite your lips...

(Approaching the fire unclean, arrogantly.)

And which nations are you?!

Unclean (together)

Chase around the world
accustomed to our wandering people.
We are no nations
our work is our homeland.

Frenchman

Blacksmith (Frenchman, patting him on a fair belly)

The noise of the flood, I suppose, in your ears?

Laundress (to him, mockingly and shrillly)

Would you lay down and sleep on the bed now?
Let you into the trenches and into the mines!

Red Army man (menacingly)

I would go to the trenches -
in the trenches of wet beds.

Seeing the brewing "conflict" between the pure and the impure, the Compromiser rushes to separate them.

Compromiser

Lovely! Well, don't! Don't swear!
Throw at each other askance.
Stretch out your hands
hug each other
Lord, comrades,
have to agree.

Frenchman (viciously)

Fisherman (viciously. Both the fisherman and the Frenchman crutch the neck of the Compromiser)

Oh you conciliator!
Oh you compromiser!

Compromiser (running away, beaten, whining)

Here you go,
again…
I'm good to him
and he…
So it's always like this:
calling to agree
and you will be imposed on both sides.

The unclean pass, separating the squeamishly squeezing crowd of the clean, and sit down by the fire. The crowd of the pure closes behind them in a circle.

Pasha (pops out in the middle)

Faithful!
We need to discuss what happened.
Let's delve into the essence of the phenomenon.

Merchant

It's a simple matter -
doomsday.

I think it's a flood.

Frenchman

And not a flood
otherwise b
it was raining.

Rajah

Yes,
there was no rain.

Diplomat

So this idea is also wild ...

Pasha

But anyway -
What happened, believers?
Let's, believers, look at the root.

Merchant

The people, in my opinion, became rebellious.

German

Think war, me.

Intelligentsia

No,
I think the reason is different.
I think it's metaphysical...

Merchant (unhappy)

War is metaphysical!
Let's start with Adam!

In turn!
In turn!
Don't make sodom.

Pasha

Let's talk gradually.
Your word, student!

(Justified in front of the crowd.)

And then he even has foam on his lips.

Intellectual

At first
everything was simple:
day changed to night
but only
the dawn was too raging alo!
After -
laws,
concepts,
faith,
granite piles of capitals
and the sun itself is a motionless redhead, -
everything seemed to be a little fluid,
creep a little,
a little liquefied.
Then how it spills!
The streets are pouring
the melted house falls on the house.
The whole world,
melted in the blast furnaces of revolutions,
pouring down like a waterfall.
Chinese voice
Lord! Attention!
It's drizzling here!
Australian wife
Pretty drizzle!
Wet like pigs.

Persian

Maybe the end of the world is near
and we
we rally, yell and laugh.

Diplomat (clings to the pole)

Merchant (giving a knee to an Eskimo who is clamping a hole with the patience inherent in this people)

Hey, you!
Went to the walruses!

The Eskimo hunter flies off, and from the open hole a jet beats into those present. The clean ones scattered like a fan, yelling inarticulately.

A minute later, everyone rushes to the jet.

Score!
Shut up!
Clamp!

Receded. Only the Australian remained at the globe with his finger in the hole. In the general commotion, the priest perched on a couple of logs.

Brethren!
Losing the last inch!
The last inch is filled with water!

Who is this?
Who is that closet with the beard?

This is for forty nights and forty days!

Merchant

Right!
The Lord advised him wisely.

Intelligentsia

There has been a similar precedent in history -
remember the famous adventure of Noevo.

Merchant (taking the place of the priest)

Get to the point!

Merchant

Come on, brothers, let's build a kopcheg.
Australian wife
Right! The ark!

Intelligentsia

Here is the hunt!
Let's build a boat.

Rajah

Two ships!

Merchant

Right!
I will invest all my money!
Those were saved, but we are smarter than those, in any way.

General hum

Long live,
long live technology!

Merchant

Raise your hands -
who agrees.

General hum

And you don't need hands
visible behind the eyes.

Both the clean and the unclean raise their hands.

Frenchman (taking the place of the merchant, he angrily examines the blacksmith, who raised his hand)

And are you there?
And don't you dare!
Lord
let's not take the unclean!
They will know how to scold us!

Do you know how to saw and plan?

Frenchman (drooping)

I changed my mind.
Take the unclean.

Merchant

We will only select the non-drinkers and the broad-shouldered.

German (taking the place of the French)

T-s-s, gentlemen,
maybe you don't have to put up with
impure.
Fortunately,
we don't know what's up with a fifth of the world.
Chatter, and did not even bother to find out
Are there Americans among us?

Merchant (happily)

Well, the head!
Not a man, but a German chancellor!
Joy cuts through the cry of an Australian.
What is this?

An American on a motorcycle rushes straight from the hall to the tensely peering.

American

(Stretches the paper.)

Here
from drowned America
two hundred billion checks.

Silent sadness. And suddenly the cry of an Australian pinching the water.

Australian

What did they glare at? Will stare!
By God, take it out!
Fingers numb.

The clean ones fussed, rubbing against the unclean.

Frenchman (blacksmith)

Well, comrades,
build, huh?
Gentle Blacksmith
What about me
for me at least...

(Waving hand unclean.)

Aida, comrades!
Ride, so ride.

The unclean are rising. Saws. Planers. Hammers.

Compromiser

Hurry, comrades
Hurry, darlings!
Get to work!
In the hands of axes and saws!

Intellectual (moves aside)

Work -
and don't even think about it.
I'll sit right here
and sabotage.

(Screaming at the workers.)

Live turn around!
Ruby, don't miss it!

A carpenter

Why are you sitting with your hands folded?

Intellectual

I'm special, I'm irreplaceable...

ACT TWO

Ark deck. In all directions, a panorama of lands crumbling into waves. A ladder-mast tangled with ropes rests against low clouds. To the side is the wheelhouse and the entrance to the hold. The clean and the unclean lined up along the close board.

Laborer

N-yes!
I wouldn't want to go overboard today.

Seamstress

Look there:
not a wave, but a fence!

Merchant

In vain I confused it with you.
Always like this
to no avail.
Mariners too!
Found a sea wolf.

Lamplighter

Look, brought it up!
Humming and groaning.

Seamstress

What a fence!
Closed by a wall!

Frenchman

Yes, sir.
Very stupid!
I tell you with sorrow and pain, sir.
Would sit.
The earth is still holding on.
Whatever it is, but still a pole.

Laborer

What are your wolves
waves caress.

Both Eskimos, the driver and the Australians at once.

Look
What is this?
What about Alaska?

Negus

Well, it jumped!
What a stone sling.

German

Eskimo

Fisherman

No!
All
Goodbye! Goodbye! Goodbye!

Frenchman (burst into tears, crushed by memories)

My God!..

My God!..
used to
the whole family
let's gather at the tea table -
buns,
caviar…

Baker (measuring the tip of the nail)

Wonderful, by God!
Well, it's not a pity
not so much.

Shoemaker

I stocked up the vodka.
Got a glass?

Servant

Miner

Guys,
let's go to the hold!

Eskimo hunter

Well, how's the walrus?
Isn't it very hot?

Servant

Nothing is fried
nicely fried.
Clean ones. The unclean descend into the hold, singing along.
What do we have to lose? Are we afraid of the flood?
Legs loosened - stomped around the world!
Oh, and rest in steamboats.
Eh!
And eating a walrus and sipping vodka is not a sin ...
Oh, it's not a sin!

The clean surrounded the whimpering Frenchman.

Persian

It's embarrassing, right!
Stop yelling!

Merchant

Let's get through somehow
crawl to Ararat.

Negus

You will die of hunger, while the mountain is.

American

Lots of money
and without food you can hardly die.
I give half a million for a pound of bread
nikolaevka
and two pounds of diamonds.

Merchant

Speculated.
I sat in Cheka three times.
What the hell is this money to me now?!

Chinese

Spit and rub.

Pasha

What diamonds!
Now if a person has liver stones,
then you feel more secure -
belly stuffed.

Australian

No grub
one trough.

Compromiser

And then Sukharevka is closed.

Merchant (to the ass)

Nothing, humble monk,
now there is a Smolensky market on every square.

Lady

And butter, and milk, and cream in the market, -
substitute an empty pocket for a lid.

Merchant

It's you who sits without milk, fool,
and the worker has a bonus,
the worker's nature, -
will receive
and exchange.

Lady

And I will change hats for eggs.

Intellectual

Change your last hat
and then sit
suck paw.

Pop (listening to the noise in the hold)

Intellectual

What to them!
Caught fish and eat.

Let's take a net or a prison and let's catch it too.

German

Os-t-r-o-g-y?
And how to deal with her?
I only know how to pick at a man with a sword.

Merchant

I cast the net
I thought - I'll take out the fish,
tired,
and nothing -
one herb.

Pasha (contritely)

What have they grown up to?
the first guild - and eat algae.

Lloyd George (to Clemenceau)

Eureka!
Let's stop fighting.
What quarrel can there be with an Englishman
French?
The main thing is that I have a belly, you have a belly.

Compromiser

And I have… belly.

Clemenceau

How sad it is
with such a wonderful gentleman -
him and I didn't get a little carried away.

Lloyd George

Now we are not up to fights:
we have a common enemy.
Here's what I want to tell you...

He takes Clemenceau by the arm and leads him away. Whispering, they return.

Clemenceau

We are all so clean.
Do we shed sweat at work?
Let's force the unclean to attack us
worked.

Intellectual

I would force them!
Yes, where do I
stunted!
And any of them is oblique in the shoulders.

Lloyd George

God save the fight!
Don't fight
and while the menus are surviving,
while they sit
piya and orya,
let's take it and give them a pig ...

Clemenceau

Let's choose a king!

Compromiser

Why a king?
Better than the city.

Clemenceau

And then that the king will issue a manifesto -
all the food should be given to me, they say.
The king eats
and we eat
his loyal subjects.
All
Great!

Pasha

German (happily)

I told you -
Bismarck's head!

Australians

Choose quickly!

But who?
Whom?

English and French

Right!
And hold the reins in his hands.

Merchant

What reins?

German

Well, how are they...
reins of government, or something ...
What are you picking on?
The meaning is one.

(negusu.)

Get up, sir!

Real, real!

Lady

Oh!
I'll be the lady of the court!

Lloyd George

Hurry, hurry
write the manifest:
with God's mercy, they say ...

Pasha and the Australian

And we are here
not to get out.

Pasha and others are scribbling a manifesto. A German with a diplomat is unwinding a rope before leaving the hold. Staggering, the unclean climb out. When the latter crawled onto the deck, the diplomat and the German change places - and the unclean are entangled.

German (shoemaker)

Hey,
You!
Get sworn in!

Shoemaker (poor understanding of events)

May I lie down better?

Diplomat

I will lie to you -
you won't get up for a hundred years!
Lieutenant Mr.
point the gun!

Frenchman

Aha!
Sober up!
That's how it's easier.

Some impure (sad)

Gotcha brothers
like chickens in cabbage soup.

Australian

Hats off!
Who's got a hat?

The Chinese and the Raja (push the priest, standing under the cabin, headed by the negus)

Read on
read, stand without breathing yet.

Pop (on paper)

by the grace of God
We,
king of fried unclean chickens
And Grand Duke on the same eggs,
not tearing off seven skins from anyone, -
we tear off six, the seventh is left, -
We declare to our loyal subjects:
drag everything -
fish, crackers, guinea pigs
and what there is edible other things.
Governing Senate
won't slow down
sort out the piles of goodness,
select and treat us.
An impromptu senate of pasha and rajah.
Listen, Your Majesty!

Pasha (disposes of)

(Australian.)

You are in the cabins!
(Australian.)
You are in the pantries!
(General.)
So that the unclean does not eat anything dear.
(To the merchant, unwinding the baker for him.)
You go down into the hold with him.
I'll go over everything with the rajah on deck.
drag here
and come back again.

The joyful rumble of the pure.

We'll pile up a whole mountain of edibles!

Pop (rubbing his hands)

And then fraternally share the booty
according to Christian custom.

Convoyed clean, unclean descend into the hold. A minute later they return and dump all kinds of food in front of the negus.

Merchant (happily)

All searched
nothing else is equal.
What a product!
Admiration!
One word -
normalized.
Well, guys, sharpen your teeth!

And the unclean ones?

German

You have to lock them down.

Well,
your majesty, wait.
One minute!

The unclean are driven into the hold, and while they are busy with them, the negus eats everything brought. The clean ones are back.

Coming, Lloyd George?

Lloyd George

In the work, Mayakovsky describes the revolution. As soon as the Great October Revolution, the author could not make a final decision whether to participate in it, or still bypass this very grandiose and large-scale period in our history. Still, the writer chose the decision to help the Bolsheviks carry out the revolution. During the process itself, he was in Smolny. In order to somehow bring some benefit to the people who started the revolution and the whole movement in general, Mayakovsky began to write various poems in a satirical form, as well as various ditties and other elements of agitation in favor of the Reds.

The work "Mystery - Buff" was written in the comedy genre. This genre was designed mainly for ordinary workers and proletarians, during the times of capitalist oppression. This comedy combines epic and satirical qualities. The work expresses the spirit of art younger generation. The story contains various motifs and elements borrowed from the Bible, such as heaven and hell, the ark and the flood. The divine Methuselah and the demon Beelzebub are also mentioned in the comedy. In addition to all of the above, in this comedy there is a drama on the theme of religion.

Social conflicts in comedy are presented in the form of 7 impure couples. These pairs include: a blacksmith, a miner, a machinist, an attendant, a carpenter, a military man, a laundry woman, and a driver. At the end of the battle with unclean vapors, it is possible to destroy hell, remove God, remove destruction, repair locomotives and many other things. All phenomena in the work are described with wit and irony. Mayakovsky's Utopian Predictions Provide Relevance this work far ahead. IN historical period revolution in our country this genre was very popular.

  At the beginning of the story, one of the heroes is in a wonderful situation: a mature, respected and influential millionaire. But this power, apparently, bored him. I wanted something more to sell and buy, hire and fire.

"Mystery-buff" - the road. Revolution road. No one can predict with accuracy what other mountains we will have to blow up, going this way. Today the word "Lloyd George" is boring into the ear, and tomorrow the British themselves will forget his name. Today, the will of millions is rushing towards the commune, and in fifty years, perhaps, the attack is far away.

We'll show you in a minute... Mystery buff. I have to say two words: this is a new thing. To jump above your head, you need someone to help. A new play needs a prologue. First, why is the whole theater destroyed? Well-intentioned people will be very outraged by this. Why do you go to shows? To get pleasure right? And how great is the pleasure to watch, if the pleasure is only on the stage; the stage is only one third. So, in an interesting performance, if you build everything up, then your pleasure will increase three times, but if the performance is uninteresting, then you should not look even at one third. For other theaters, it is not important to present: for them, the stage is a keyhole. Sit, they say, quietly, straight or obliquely and see a piece of someone else's life. You look and see aunt Manya and uncle Vanya nasty on the sofa. And we are not interested in either uncles or aunts, aunts and uncles, and you will find houses. We will also show real life, but it has been turned into an extraordinary spectacle by the theater. The essence of the first act is this: the earth is leaking. Then - stomp. Everyone is fleeing the revolutionary flood. Seven pairs of impure and seven pairs of clean, that is, fourteen poor proletarians and fourteen bourgeois-bars, and between them, with a pair of tear-stained cheeks, Mensheviks. The pole is overflowing. The last shelter is crumbling. And everyone begins to build not even an ark, but an ark. In the second act, the audience travels in the ark: here you have an autocracy, and a democratic republic, and finally overboard, under the Menshevik howl, the clean ones were thrown headfirst. In the third act, it is shown that the workers do not need to be afraid of anything, even devils in the middle of hell. In the fourth, laugh harder! heavenly places are shown. In the fifth act, devastation, with its vast mouth gaping, crushes and devours. Although we worked for a hungry belly, we defeated devastation. In the sixth act, the commune, the whole hall, sing at the top of your lungs! Look in all eyes!

All is ready? And hell? And heaven?

Because of the stage.

Ready! Let's!

At the glow of the northern lights, the globe of the earth, resting with its pole against the ice of the floor. Ropes of latitudes and longitudes cross with ladders all over the globe.
