“You must confess – all that happens onstage is so searingly clandestine and so alluringly agonizing that you almost fear exposing the intimacy of your own emotional experience. There is a sense here that you alone share with these actors the unbearable lightness of being, which, at times reaches deeply into the subconscious.”
Maria Sedykh, Obshchaya gazeta
“Ginkas, as in his other productions, carves out of life’s chaos a territory in which he can use theater to make sense of things. This gives him the opportunity, through theater, to enjoy the sense of power that art gives over life – even if it is an illusory sensation.”
Artur Solomonov, “Be Happy You’re Not a Bug,” Gazeta
“The best part of this production is the way it explores the evolution of the vulgar and the banal, the transformation of a common tale of adultery into a story of love. The result is unexpectedly lyrical for Ginkas.”
Oleg Zintsov, “An Ordinary Story”, Vedomosti
