The idea of \u200b\u200bthe play, originally called the "Product Love" ("Die Ware Liebe") refers to 1930; The sketch, to which Brecht returned at the beginning of 1939 in Denmark, contained five scenes. In May of the same year, the first version of the play was completed in Swedish Lidin; However, two months later, its root recycling began.

To make it easier for the girl to remain good, gods, leaving the house of Shen those, give her some money, - on this money she buys a small tobacco shop.

But people unceremoniously use the kindness of Shen Those: the more she makes good, the more trouble on behalf of themselves. Affairs go out of the hands badly, - to save his shop from ruin, Shen those who do not know how to say "no", disguises in men's clothing and seems to be their cousin - Mr. Shui, harsh and not mean.

Bertold Brecht

Philosophical pose

Translation from German Yu. Yuzovsky and E. ionova, verses in translation B. Slutsky
Producer - Yuri Lyubimov
Music - Anatoly Vasilyev, Boris Khmelnitsky

"Good people of their seasura" - our first performance, theater on Taganka began with it. He became a symbol and the talisman of the theater, does not come down from the stage more than half a century, and this unusually long-life of the performance continues at all because we take it as a talisman. Never Yuri Lyubimov did not hold for the performance, if he considered it an irrelevant, obsolete if he stopped to understand and perceive (although there was no such audience in his work).

So, the play is about kindness, devoted to the statement of kindness - congenital, according to Breht, the properties of a person.

Gods descended to Earth and unsuccessfully looking for at least one good person. It is necessary to find if they do not find, then this world does not exist. And finally find - a prostitute Shen Te, a man who cannot say "no".

Brecht believed that there are human categories that can be portrayed and explained only in the form of myth, symbol, in the genre of plays-parables. Such is the immanent and irresistible kindness of the heroine - Shen those. But where it will lead it, is it possible in general in the world around us the embodiment of kindness, which means and why there is a duality of the soul, as a person is forced to defend himself - they try to answer or ask them the author of the play and play.

On the position of the situation and characters known to everyone, almost domestic, recognizable immediately. And the gods and at all - the funny Trinity in modern suites, which is looking for the night. And these are the gods who have to be decided by the fate of the world, in which - we will see - that for a man deceased, and that salvation.

Opening Breht's playwright, Lyubimov searched special techniques to work with artists - they learned to talk with the public, because Brecht had provisions when the author is very important to the point of actor out of the image, his own attitude to reality, the actor at this time from the image comes out, leaving him aside. These principles of the Brehtov Theater were at the Nutra Lyubimov and had to, in his opinion, expand the horizons and artist, and the viewer, to make thinking and understand something around him. In the future, they took a durable place in the artistic concept of the theater on Taganka, outsetting his aesthetic space and a way to talk with the viewer, as well as the choice of topics - the human heart, a soul, relationship with the world, love ... And then, in the 60s - years of unfulfilled hopes , In general, the very presence of this conversation, in other theaters not adopted. The hall is involved, he doesn't just look at the performance, worries and compets, but participates.

In this performance, no one pretend to be pretending to anyone, no one in the nose, do not pass. Everything is conditional here and everything is truly. After all, the art of the theater is not an approach to life and not to imitate her, but other, meaningful, newly created, more of that - created right in front of the artistic canvas.

Conventions on the scene turns into absolute validity perceived directly. The metaphor overlaps any similarity, affects feelings, and the action is direct. The gods are wonderful, a tree from planks, the factory is depicted by cotton in the palm of his palm, and the soul rushes into two its irreconcilable and inseparable parts, and all this causes the most real feelings and thoughts, and compassion, and tears, and fear.

Notes of amateur.

№ 21. Theater on Taganka. Good man from Seosaana (Bertold Brecht). Dir. Yuri loved.

Black and white classic.

A kind person from Seosaana - Favimova's grayscale playing a symbol of the theater on the Taganka, with whom he came in 1964 to the theater as an artist. Thus, the production in which Vladimir Vysotsky and Valery Zolukhin were involved for more than 50 years. The passion for Bertold Brecht and his ideas of the "epic theater" was reflected not only on a specific performance, but also on the theater as a whole. Meets the viewer for empty black boxes of an open scene, without a curtain, without scenery. But in this small, brown hall, filled with older audience gently and cozy.

The action starts very cheerfully, the actors play alive, vigorously, self-confidently, if not to say brazenly. What is happening captures from the first seconds and does not let go until the end of the performance. The emphasis was made on the satirical image of the characters, each of which is simple, but well worked and self-sufficient. The actors are focused on the image of the most characteristic features of their heroes, leading themselves straight and predictably, there are no non-evils or hints. Everything is clearly clear and understandable.

Events are indicated by the director's dotted line, it stops only on the most significant episodes. In all, a hard, confident hand, telling the story is dry enough, but tight. There is nothing superfluous, only the most important thing, but in this laconism, the game of actors is still brighter, their impact on the viewer. Events occur faster, here less lyrical deviations, not so many zones. As a result, there is a large number of humor, the performance looks in one breath, like a monolith. Honored director, widening life and experience, but who did not lose all of his irony, from the height of the years, leads the story with solid and skillful hand. Everything is straightforward, simple and understandable.

Shen are very good, but too simple a girl who every passing immediately climbs on the neck. Her Alter Ego, the "cousin" Shui she, on the contrary, sees everyone through, knows what he wants and goes to this alkalis, only sicks fly. Looking-beggars, "Jumps of the Quarter" asking all the abilities on the ruin of their benefactor here, but charming in their comic identity, their expressive tricks are funny. Lyubimov has all the logic of developing events pushes the need for the emergence of a "cousin", saving position. Shen those here there are no painful torments, it turns into Shui that forced and inevitably. He had to appear, in a different way and could not.

The performance is drawn up in full compliance with the Brehtov "Effect of Exchange", the scenery is practically absent, and those that are quite conditional - in the design of metal rods you will find out a tree, and the tobacco shopping shop is recreated using the table and the "Tobacco". The inscription is often applied by the reception in the "Epic Theater". If a modest wedding takes place in a cheap restaurant, then the "cheap restaurant" is written on the transparency. Everything else is for actors that create unique, incendiary and slightly hooligan style, special energy. What is happening and causes genuine interest. Another major element of the epic theater - music, zoys accompanying and penetrating the performance are performed under the guitar and the bayan, but it looks like this with the branded acting and the Taganka Aura organic. It feels a special collective actor spirit, this is one "gang".

Here the paradoxes have been manifested by the author - the world is arranged in such a way that in certain situations following "Heart", remaining good and good for everyone in the end you can destroy yourself. For useful affairs in our world, sometimes you have to make a black job, be ruthless and hard, understand the true meaning of actions and know the price of things. The gods themselves "approve" the appearance of Shui is, but making the reservation, which is not more than "once a month." Another paradox is that a prostitute turned out to be the only kind person in Sichuan, other people have no good to be forgotten. It is possible to consider it as a kind of hint, the author notes where the modern cynical world puts decent people and how it belongs to them. A kindness is a luxury in the world of people, poverty satellite and a heavy burrow, and not be rich and successful if you are not angry.

If you compare the production of Lyubimov and Butusov, then it becomes apparent who walked inspiration. Some heroes of Butusov simply completely copy Lyubimovskiy: Cheerfully funny old woman with a squeaky voice, a fashionable homeowner of Mi TCI, shaking the hips and smoking cigarettes through a long mouthpiece. The collective image of the arrogant, treacherous halters is also taken from Taganka. Three God of Lyubimov, unlike Butusov, are shown in detail, with attention and love. The gods are pretty, fair and charming and too similar to people with their weaknesses: they are supported by kefir and swear playing in Domino. Also very humanly, they argue, doubt, not knowing how to do. Each episode with them is bright and memorable.

If you compare the performances with clothes, then the performance from Taganka looks like a simple peasant shirt with a belt of coarse fabric. The brainchild of Butusov is a parade uniform with brilliant copper buttons, a sword and accelets. Butusov takes a complex virtuoso form, deepening in particular, lovers captivates simply, clean but perfect content. Taganka is an old black and white classic masterpiece, tested by time. Pushkin Theater is a modern spectacular remake, with stars, big budget and 3D format.

The legendary performance from which the history of the theater began on Taganka began, and which marked the beginning of the signature Tagan style: a direct appeal to the hall, the conventionality of action, the disgrace from the image, "live" music and the zooms are short rhythmic songs that you want to sing.

The plot of the performance is transmitted by several words. The gods descended on Earth are looking for at least one good person. But, as it turns out, even in the soul of a good person there is evil and periodically wips the top. These deep and serious thoughts are submitted in a light, elegant, sometimes satirical form.

The basis for the plot of the play of Bertolt Brecht was the duality of our material world: good gusts appeal to the brutal acts, the desire to create good causes pain, "anger of fate", according to T.manna, becomes "far-sighted". Yes, the gods are presented to Shen's gift, but for him a kind person must pay awareness of the truth about the world order and mental suffering, the need to be tough and sometimes fierce to survive and enable others. Shen Team is the deportation of the world of duality, there is no other way for it, how to live according to his laws, she lacks forces to violate the rules of the game. That's where the ironic-indulgent attitude towards it is the gods, here is the requirement of the "Regulations" to appear the "shadow" hatch of Shen Te-cousin Shui.

What conclusion should the viewer from the Page Plays of Brecht? The world is dual and, therefore, cruelty needs to be taken as a givenness? A person remains suffering and pessimism? Not. Bertolt Brecht, Yuriy Lyubimov and actors of the theater on Taganka propose to think and understand that only the mind and tough monitoring of the manifestations of their "shadow", cruel beginnings will help preserve the balance between good and evil. Mind and intelligence - the only human weapon in the world of duality. In this call of the gods and the author's declaration.

Piece-parable about the need for the approval of good power will be contemporary and timely, while there is a material world. That is why almost 50 years old does not come from the stage a performance that united the theater of thought B. Brecht and the theater of the form of Y. Lyubimov, who became the business card of the theater on Taganka.

The duration of the performance is 2 hours 45 minutes.

Made a post from pieces, passages from books and articles. When you fold the puzzles of the text and video, I hope that you will feel the atmosphere of the theater, or rather one very interesting performance, that's what I wanted to express in my post:

Under the life of Brecht, his relationship with the Soviet theater was folded, to put it mildly, not particularly successfully. The main reasons were the ideological rejection of the official theater of Brehtov artistic searches, as well as the paradoxicity of the Brecht figure, a fairly annoyed power. Mutual dislike was mutual. On the one hand, in the 1920s and 1950s, Pieces of Brehta, domestic theaters almost did not put, on the other hand, the acquaintance of the German playwright with Soviet theater practice has repeatedly plunged him in despondency.

Brecht was in the Soviet chalk circle. Only at the turn of the 1950s and 1960s, after his death, there are rare performances of his plays. Among the first and most significant should be mentioned: "Sonya Simon Mashhar" in the Moscow Theater. M. Yermolova in the formulation of Anatoly Efrosa (1959); "Mamasha Courage and her children" in the Moscow Academic Theater. Vl. Mayakovsky (Maxim Straha) (1960); "Good Man from Selyan" in the Leningrad Academic Theater. Pushkin (1962, director - Rafail Suslovich); "Career Arturo UI" in the Leningrad Large Drama Theater. Gorky (1963, director - Erwin Akser).

However, these and some other thaws of Brecht are fused before the meaning of one educational student performance. In 1963, young Vakhtangov, students of the third (!) Course of the theater school named after B.V. Schukina, presented the fruit of their six-month work - the play "Good Man from Selyuana" in the formulation of the teacher of the course Yuri Lyubimov.

His success was stunning. In the last year, thawed, in the small hall of the Schukinsky school on the old Arbat (later they played on other stage sites of Moscow) The performance was viewed by I. Ehrenburg, K. Simonov, A. Voznesensky, E. Evtushenko, B. Okudzhava, B. Akhmadulin, V. Aksenov, Y. Trifonov, A. Galich, O. Efremov, M. Plisetskaya, R. Shchedrin ... It would seem that the student production was perceived by the Moscow public not only as a theater breakthrough, but also as a kind of public manifesto , a banner of thrilled time change. It is very symptomatic that in a year, on April 23, 1964, the loved one from Seosaana, "a new theater opens a new theater - theater on the Taganka in which he comes to this day.
(Passage from the article on the work of Brecht.)

Moscow is an amazing city - everything will be learned there everything. A rumor was separated, which is preparing some interesting performance. And since everyone is bored, and diplomats, too, since something interesting, it means there will be a scandal. As the Erdman's deceased spoke, that "if there is no scandal around the theater, then this is not the theater." So, in this sense he was a prophet in relation to me. So it was. Well, boring, and everyone wants to come, see, and know that if it is interesting, it will close it. Therefore, the performance could not begin for a long time, the public broke into the hall. These diplomats sat on the floor in the aisle, fought a fireman, the pale director, the rector of the school, said that he would not be allowed, because the hall could collapse. " In the hall where places for two hundred forty people, sitting about four hundred - in general, was a complete scandal. I stood with a lantern - there was a very bad electrician, and I myself stood and drove the lantern. The portrait of Brecht highlighted in the right places. And I drove everything with this lantern and shouted:

For God's sake, let me continue the performance that you do, because the performance will close, no one will see him! What do you have, do you really not understand where you live, idiots!

And yet I subsided them. But, of course, everyone recorded and reported. Well, and closed after that.

Summary of the play (for those who do not know about something at all)))

The main city of Sichuan Province, in which all the places on the globe and any time, in which a person operates a person, is the place and time of the play of the play.

Prologue. For two millennia, a cry is not stopped: it cannot continue to continue. No one in this world is able to be kind! And the concerned gods decided: the world may remain as it is, if there are enough people who can live a decent life. And to check it, the three prominent God descend to Earth. Perhaps Vodonos Wang, the first to meet them and caught the water (he, by the way, is the only one in Sichuan, who knows that they are gods), a worthy person? But his mug, noticed the gods, with a double bottom. Good waterproof - fraudster! The simplest checking of the first virtue - hospitality - upset them: neither in one of the rich houses: neither Mr. Fo, nor Mr. Chen, nor Widow Su - cannot van find for them overnight. One thing remains: to contact the prostitute Shen de, she cannot deny anyone. And the gods spend the night at the only good person, and the next morning, saying goodbye, leave Shen de Puzzle to stay as good as well as a good fee for the night: after all, how to be good when everything is so expensive!

I. The gods left Shen de a thousand silver dollars, and she bought her little tobacco shop on them. But how many in need of help turns out to be next to those who smiled at luck: the former owner of the shop and the former owners of Shen de - husband and wife, her lame brother and pregnant daughter-in-law, nephew and niece, old grandfather and boy, - and everyone needs a roof over his head and food. "Salving a small boat / immediately goes to the bottom. After all, too much sinking / grabbed greedily overboard. "

And then the joiner requires a hundred silver dollars who did not pay him the old hostess for the shelves, and the homeowner needs recommendations and guarantee for not too respectable Shen de. "A cousin will be charged for me," she says. - And for the shelves it will pay the same. "

II. And the next morning in the tobacco shop appears Shoy yes, cousin Shen de. Decisively, forging unlucky relatives, skillfully forceding the carpenter to take only twenty silver dollars, prudently having friends with the police, he settles his things to her too good cousin.

III. And in the evening in the city park, Shen De meets the unemployed pilot Sun. A pilot without an airplane, a postal pilot without mail. What should he do in the world, even if he read all books about flights in the Beijing school, even if he knows how to plant an aircraft to Earth, exactly is his own ass? He is like a crane with a broken wing, and nothing to do on earth. Rope is ready, and the trees in the park as much as you like. But Shen de does not give him to hang. Live without hope - to create evil. The hopeless song of waterproof selling water during the rain: "Thunder rattles, and the rain is pouring, / well, and I am a veins, / and the water is not for sale / and do not drink anyone. I scream: "Buy WATER!" / But no one buys. / In my pocket for this water / nothing falls! / Buy water, dogs! "

And Shen de buys a mug of water for his beloved Yang Suna.

Vladimir Vysotsky and Zinaida Slavina in the play "Good Man from Selyan." 1978

IV. Returning after the night spent with her beloved, Shen de first sees the morning city, cheerful and giving fun. People are kind today. Old people, carpet traders from a shop on the contrary, give a cute shen de debt of two hundred and silver dollars - will be than paying with a homeowner for six months. A person who loves and hopes, nothing is difficult. And when the mother Sun Mrs. Yang says that for a huge amount in five hundred silver dollars, the son promised a place, she gladly gives her money received from the old people. But where to take another three hundred? There is only one way out - contact our shoi yes. Yes, he is too tough and heter. But the pilot must fly!

Intermediate. Shen de enters, holding a mask and suit shoi in his hands, and sings the "song about the helplessness of gods and good people": "Our good in our country cannot remain. / To get with a false cup, / need cruelty. / Good helpless, and the gods are powerless. / Why do not say the gods there, on the air, / what time to give everything good and good / the opportunity to live in good, good world? "

V. Smart and prudent fuck Yes, whose eyes do not blind love, sees deception. Yang Suna does not frighten cruelty and meanness: let the place promised to him - someone else's, and the pilot, who will be fired from him, Big Family, let Siene de Drain with a bench, except for which she has nothing, and old people will lose their two hundred dollars and lose her housing - just to achieve your own. Such can not be trusted, and Shoy yes is looking for a support in rich in the barber, ready to marry Shen de. But the mind is powerless, where love acts, and Shen de leaves with Sun: "I want to leave with those who love, / I don't want to think about, whether it is good. / I do not want to know if he loves me. / I want to leave with whom I love. "

Vi. In a small cheap restaurant, the suburb prepared for the wedding Yang Sun and Shen De. Bride in the wedding dress, the groom in the tuxedo. But the ceremony does not start anything in any way, and Bonza looks at the clock - the groom and his mother are waiting for Shoi Yes, which should bring three hundred silver dollars. Yang Sun sings a song about the day of the saint never ":" On this day, they take evil throat, / On this day, all the poor is lucky, / and the owner and the battle / together in the cabin / on the saint day, never / skinny drinks at a party . / We are no longer waiting for more. / Therefore, we must give us, / Peace Labor, / Saint Day, never, never, / day, when we are resting. "

"He will never come," says Mrs. Yang. Three sit, and two of them look at the door.

VII. On the trolley near the tobacco bench, Scarb Shen De-shop had to sell to return the duty to old men. Birber Shu Fu is ready to help: he will give his barracks for the poor who helps Shen de (there still can not keep the goods - too raw), and will write down the check. And Shen De is happy: she felt the future son - pilot, "new conqueror / inaccessible mountains and unknown regions!" But how to protect it from the cruelty of this world? She sees a small saint of a stolar, who is looking for food in a permanent bucket, and swear, which will not calm down until his son saves, at least one. It is time to turn again into a cousin.

Mr. Sheo, declares the gathered that his cousin will continue to leave them without help, but from now on, the distribution of food without response is stopped, and the one who agrees to work on Shen De will live in the houses of Mr. Shu Fu.

VIII. On a tobacco factory, which shoo yes, a man, women and children work in the barracks. The supervisor - and cruel - here Yang Song: he will not be sad because the fate of change and shows that he is ready for all for the interests of the company. But where is Shen de? Where is a kind person? Where is the one who many months ago on a rainy day per minute of joy bought a water mug from waterproof? Where is she and her future child, about which she told waterproof? And Sun, too, would like to know this: if his ex-bride was pregnant, then he, as the father of the child, can claim the position of the owner. But, by the way, in the node her dress. Did the unhappy woman killed a cruel cousin? Police comes to the house. Mr. Shoy yes will be faced with the court.

X. In the courtroom, Shen de (Vodonos Van, Chet Starikov, grandfather and niece) and partners Shoy Yes (Mr. Shu Fu and Homeower) are waiting for the beginning of the meeting. At the sight of judges entering the hall, Shoi falls into fainting - these are gods. The gods are not at all ourselves: under the mask and suit, they don't recognize Shen de. And only when, without having accusations of the good and intercession of evil, Shoy yes, removes the mask and disrupts the clothes, the gods with horror see that the mission failed them: their good man and evil and unfortunate shoi yes - one face. It does not work in this world to be good to others and at the same time towards yourself, does not leave others to save and do not destroy ourselves, you can not even make yourself happy with everyone together! But the gods have no time to understand such difficulties. Is it really to abandon the commandments? No never! Recognize that the world should be changed? How? By whom? No, everything is okay. And they soothe people: "Shen de did not died, she was only hidden. Among you there is a kind person. " And to the desperate cry of Shen de: "But I need a cousin" - I answer hurry: "Only not too often!" And meanwhile, as Shen de in despair stretches hands to them, they, smiling and nodding, disappear at the top.

Epilogue. The final monologue of the actor before the public: "Out of the public is respectable! The end is unimportant. I know it. / In our hands, we have a beautiful tale suddenly got a bitter junction. / Lowered the curtain, and we stand in embarrassed - no permission issues found. / So what's the deal? Well, we are not looking for benefits, / and then should there be any correct way? / For money you will not come up - what! Another hero? And if the world is another? / Or maybe you need other gods here? Il at all without gods? Silent in alarm. / Help so much! Bed to correct - and the thought and mind will direct your here. / Try to find good things for good way. / Bad end - abandoned in advance. / He must, should, should be good! "
