The theater on Malaya Bronnaya brought the play "Late Love" based on the story of Bashevis-Singer. What was there from Malaya Bronnaya, I don't know. Staged by Arie, who is the chief director of the Tel Aviv Gesher. Clara Novikova, a pop lady, Leonid Kanevsky and Daniil Spivakovsky, who is better known as a film actor, played. However, there is another participant in the production of Mukharyamov, who turned the story into a play. Singer's story is tough, fluent, and leaves the feeling of hopelessness complete. Not a play. Here an additional character is introduced, some connections are drawn, and even a certain future is outlined, which is not even mentioned in the story.The plot of the play is as follows. Harry, who once fled from Poland to America, is now old (he is 82 years old) and lonely. His only support Mark, whom he rescued from the ghetto as a child and brought to the United States, leaves at the insistence of his wife to Israel, and Harry is left alone. His children and his wife died long ago, and there remained somewhere an unfamiliar grandson who does not want to know him. Harry is rich, but happiness is not in money, they explain and show us. And suddenly a new neighbor knocks to meet Harry. Probably, all this is happening in the Jewish area, since it is obvious to everyone that the neighbor is Jewish. Relatively young (57 years old) Ethel hails from the same area of Poland where Harry once lived.Ethel is also lonely. She lost contact with her daughter, and her husband, whom she loved very much, recently passed away. By the way, the husband was exactly the same age as Harry, and also successful in business. Ethel is a rich widow. An instant romance begins. The next day, Harry proposes to Ethel, which she accepts. During the conversation, Ethel constantly remembers her husband, it turns out that after his death she spent seven months in a psychiatric clinic. And the next morning, Harry, who is already planning to break the wall separating their apartments, learns that at night Ethel threw herself out of the window and died. But Harry does not lose heart, on the contrary, he finds his grandson, and together they decide to find Sylvia, Ethel's daughter. Such a spirit-lifting end
The target group for which Arie is staging the play are elderly Jews, and he makes the right choice. It is these people who will go to the theater in Tel Aviv, Brooklyn, Moscow.
The performance turned out to be balanced. Clara did not pull the covers over herself at all, as one might expect. Although the shadow of the intonations of "Aunt Sonya" had a place to be, she also played the Polish "Aunt Sonya", who had sex in the USA and traveled around Europe. Kanevsky showed an acting class. Small details of movements, mumbling, senile inhibition and apprehension. It was funny, touching and no vulgarity or anguish. Spivakovsky overdid it a little in the role of a little henpecked Jew, but remained within the bounds of decency. Arie is excellent (as always, however) used the music. One of the most touching scenes of the play is when Ethel starts playing on the tablecloth like a piano, and Harry picks up an imaginary violin, and then they (and we) hear exactly the music they are playing. At the end of the performance, Ethel's spirit was introduced so skillfully that it did not seem in the least artificial.
In general, the performance turned out to be cute. You don't often leave the theater with a good aftertaste!
Ostrovsky's play "Late Love" is probably known to every schoolchild. But in the interpretation of Yegor Peregudov, it turned out to be very unexpected. The production turned out to be both sad and funny, light and wise, a little ironic and subtle.

In the center of the play "Late Love" is the question - what price is a person willing to pay for happiness when it seems to be very close? Give up principles? Sacrifice your life, both your own and someone else's? Give it back? Each of the heroes decides for himself - what is the border of morality, where is the very line between "allowed" and "not allowed", is it worth crossing it and will it really bring that very happiness?
