Wealthy, elegant and charming Monsieur Alexander Amilcar decides, with the help of the tidy sum he has, to create for himself the illusion of what, it turns out, a man cannot live without at the very dawn of his strength - without a single friend, without a loving wife and without an adored child. To fulfill his fantasies, Monsieur Chudak invites a bum named Masha, an unemployed actress Eleanor and a young priestess of love Virginia to his brand new apartment.
“Monsieur Amilcar, or The Man Who Pays”, “Love Under Contract”, “Comedy of Senses” - under what headlines this play by Yves Jamiac has been staged in theaters since the 60s of the last century . At the time of the Union, it was perceived as a comical illustration of bourgeois mores - after all, there were no problems with free family happiness.
But since then, a lot has changed, there are more rich people, and happiness, it seems, has slightly diminished. And so it turns out that performance ticket- a new Lenkom production of this play - gives a pass not to the rotten bourgeois world, located somewhere beyond the cordon, but to the very one that now surrounds us.
Name performance "Tout Paye, or Everything is Paid" was invented by director Elmo Nyuganen, the leading director of the Tallinn City Theatre. By the way, the team of designers of the performance is almost all Baltic - production designer Andris Freiberg (Latvia), costume designer Kristina Pasternak (Latvia), musical designer Riina Roose (Estonia).
The performance has been criticized more than once for the double title - the French origin of the play is too expressively demonstrated. Indeed, the plot performance "Tout Paye, or Everything is Paid" unfolds in Paris.
A middle-aged, lonely, but very wealthy Monsieur Amilcar (Andrey Sokolov) decided to know family happiness. To do this, he arranges a performance, hiring a family for himself - a wife,
Daughter, friend. The professional actress Eleonora (performed by the brilliant Inna Churikova) is invited to play the role of the missus.
A street girl, Virginia (Natalia Schukina), accidentally met, becomes her daughter. The eccentric ragamuffin Masha (Alexander Zbruev) is invited as a close friend. In addition, completely unplanned, a completely classic mother-in-law is formed, which is superbly played by Irina Serova.
So, Amilcar becomes the sole producer, director and spectator of the play, which is played out in his house. He is very picky - all feelings and intonations are verified with exorbitant thoroughness, any falsehood is punished almost like in Stanislavsky with the exclamation "I don't believe it!"
And gradually, real, lively feelings begin to crowd out the paid acting. Eleanor very sincerely confesses her love for her "husband", and Masha delivers a very heartfelt speech about eternal friendship.
ending at performance "Tout Paye, or Everything is Paid" quite unexpected. A lone millionaire who scatters money on theatrical experiments turns out to be not a millionaire at all, but a simple clerk who wastes someone else's cash. Desperate, he decides to end the play, and along with his life. By the way, in Yves Zhamiak's play, he succeeds quite well.
And here performance "Tout Paye, or Everything is Paid" at the Lenkom Theater ends with a happy ending: Amilcar is kept from the fatal shot by his “wife” Eleanor, who uses the phrase from the famous film about Baron Munchausen for this: “Why do you have such a serious face, my friend? All the stupid things in the world are done with that face.”
The play "Monsieur Amilcar, or the Man Who Pays" was written in the 50s of the last century by the French playwright Yves Jamiac and brought extraordinary popularity to its author. The staging of this work was sold out, tickets for the performance were sold out in two days. In 1963, Yves Jamiac won the prize at the Cannes Film Festival for the best screenplay.
Performance All Paid, first staged at the Lenkom Theater in 2004, raises one of the most pressing issues: can money help find friendship and love? The main character needs a faithful friend, a loving daughter and wife, and he decides to buy them all right on the street. A friend is in fact a kind artist, his wife is a professional actress, and his daughter is a street prostitute. However, over time, an amazing thing happens: all the hired people become really closer to each other, and real life replaces acting.
The play was directed by the Estonian Elmo Nyuganen, whom Mark Zakharov entrusted with staging the play. This decision of the chief director of Lenkom turned out to be successful: tickets for the performance Everything is paid are still in high demand. The glory of the production is ensured, among other things, by the excellent cast: Andrei Sokolov acts as the main character, Inna Churikova, the wife-actress, and Alexander Zbruev, a hired friend.
The scenery of the performance in this case is not only the backdrop for a series of events, but also makes the viewer think about what is happening on the stage. The attention of the public is attracted by a huge umbrella, suggestive: can a “money umbrella” save you from serious life problems?
