Moscow presents ‘Stanislavski/Chekhov,’ a play featuring Turkish culture
Moscow’s Pokrovka Theatre hosted a special showing of “Stanislavski/Chekhov,” a one-act philosophical comedy featuring elements of Turkish culture. Written by Amina Zaman, the play tells the story of an encounter at a Turkish café in Berlin in September 1928 and will premiere in November.
The play “Stanislavski/Chekhov,” featuring elements of Turkish culture, met audiences at a special showing held at Moscow’s Pokrovka Theatre.
Written by Amina Zaman, the one-act philosophical comedy draws on real events. The story centers on an encounter between Konstantin Stanislavski and Mikhail Chekhov, two prominent figures in Russian theatre, at a Turkish café in Berlin in September 1928.
In the performance, Stanislavski and Chekhov are joined by Güler, a young Turkish woman who works at the café. Elements of Turkish culture are incorporated naturally into the play’s storyline.
From a Turkish café in Berlin to references to Istanbul
The play features cultural elements such as Turkish tea, Turkish coffee, lokum and fortune-telling from coffee grounds. It also includes references to Istanbul.
Günhan Emre Ersoy, first secretary at the Embassy of Türkiye in Moscow, attended the special showing along with diplomats, representatives of Turkish institutions and organizations, and other guests.
As part of the event, an ebru art demonstration was held before the theatre performance. “Stanislavski/Chekhov” will premiere in November.
