you are: Theatres moskvy

The simple people in Moscow, ' unburdened the heart ' and on entertainments which offered festivals: ' under a swing ', ' under hills '. Such walks in a year was a little: they were arranged in days of holidays on the Moskva River at the Kremlin, on neglinnoj, on the Maiden field, on the Trumpet area, under Novinsky.

Till a dinner to walk noblemen came. They visited theatres and went for a drive on mountains. After a dinner had fun ' other estates '. Noblemen were involved with foreign comedians, the simple people liked the, Russian actors more.

Almost for all walks built easy time sheds-buffooneries in which representations were given. In 1822 on guljani, located between Kudrinoj and the Smolensk market, 13 buffooneries, 4 mountains, 2 roundabouts, 31 tent have been constructed.

Before a scene in buffoonery hung up red kumachovyj a curtain. Offstage there were two artistic lavatories - for men and for women. In auditorium there were benches upholstered with a red bunting, then ' the second places ' and ' a shelter '. In ' shelters ' public stood.

Before buffooneries there was a special balcony-raus where there was all troupe before representation and invited public: at first called in a bell, then separate actors showed fragments from the representations. Often on a balcony there was a grandfather-raeshnik. He has been dressed, judging by a season, or in homespun armjak and bast shoes, or in a sheepskin coat and valenoks. In rhymed monologue the grandfather-raeshnik derided misters, notable, nonsense, police abusings, etc. The entrance fee in buffoonery was various: in a province, for example, paid off sometimes ' in kind ' - the input cost one egg.

On walks often showed raeshnik (the pictures inserted in the heart of a box).
