The leading figures tell us nowadays what it truly means to love the theatre in the era of growth, and in a period of stagnation. The magical world of the stage continues to attract spectators, in spite of the ever-lasting influence of cinema, TV and the Internet. Alexander Ivanovich Sumbatov-Yuzhin and Maria Nikolaevna Ermolova are timeless artists. The joint project of the Maly Theatre and A.A. Bakhrushin State Central Theatre Museum allows everyone to read the great page of the theatrical chronicle. After all, without the past, there is no present, and hence, a future. The heroes of this wonderful excursion remind us of traditional values that do not grow dull with the years.

The tickets can be purchased at Maly Theatre's box offices. Group Tours (5 to 15 persons)
