"If you want your girlfriend leave you, take her to see a show of Nekrosius. It lasts five hours," he says jokingly Mrs VR It 's true: five hours, but if they were six, and I'd been Cinzia probably be fascinated by visions of sitting in this Lithuanian director, born in 1952, which in recent years dominated the international theater scene with shows at a very high symbolic content, often taken from Russian literature. Very long, yes, but so intense, deep, soaked in a highly personal and artistic reworking of the literary text. Seeing Anna Karenina, I thought of all the times in which he says with a little 'too lightly that "certain nineteenth-century novels are immortal." I read it three times Anna Karenina, one of my favorite novels. Absolutely. So do my students. I admit, however, that here, size 2008, you can stay away from the world of the Russian nineteenth century painting by Tolstoy, conventions, roles, everyday life of people living their passions in a continuous need for domination of themselves in front of the public. Instead Eimuntas Nekrosius stages the neuroses that we might encounter in our lives, but not see the pages of Tolstoy: Hold even, the bland brother of Anna, looks like a mad puppet. The slow decline of Anna is marked by time clocks roll on stage, in the guise of trains, to symbolize the transitory nature of passion, the torment of loneliness, the falsity of the judgments of society, while playing with mirrors and frames take us among the group hell through which Anna sinks to the suicide (the brilliant performance of the train that invests). Among the cries of all those who encourage (including Karenin!), But can not understand it. Wonderful time of the two famous monologues of Anna, the actress Mascia Musy indulges in a "stream of consciousness" heartbreaking, soul of the protagonist leaves his body, you put in the hands of a strange character, a man down and bad (Fussli's nightmare? "the nedotykomka" of Sologub?) which represents the unconscious and that looks like a devil impregnable to play various roles on stage. This extraordinary show is a visionary journey through the shadows of classical heroine, but feel the echo of his pain until squares of the twenty-first century.
