MY VISIT TO THE THEATRE

I shall never forget my first visit to the Maly Theatre in Moscow. It was ages ago, but I enjoyed the play so much that it stands out in my memory quite vividly. I saw the play “Inspector-General” by Gogol. I am sure that you’ll agree with me that this play is full of humour and has a lot of funny episodes. The scenery was fine. The cast was well chosen, but best of all I liked Igor Ilyinsky who played the leading role. To my mind he is an excellent actor. No wonder he was a great success with the public. When the last curtain fell, Ilyinsky got more curtain calls than the other actors and actresses and was presented with flowers.There are very many state theatres in Uzbekistan, which have a permanent staff. Each of them has a great variety of shows. In Great Britain it is not like that. A play is rehearsed for a few weeks by a company of actors working together mostly for the first time, and it is then allowed to run as long as it draws the audience and pays its way – which may be for several years.Another peculiarity of the theatre in Great Britain is as follows – there are two kinds of seats: bookable seats – seats, that can be booked in advance, and unbookable ones – those, which have no numbers and the spectators occupy them on the principle of: first came, first served. As to the names of the parts of the theatre in England they are as follows: all the front rows, as far as the barrier are the stalls. The barrier separates the stalls from the other part of the house. There are separate entrances for different parts of the theatre. The pit is the part behind the barrier. The seats there are not bookable and have no numbers. You have to stand in queue to get in there and also for the gallery. The lower tier under the gallery is the dress-circle. People having seats there as well as in the stalls are supposed to wear some sort of evening dress.During the Middle Ages plays were acted inside churches and later in the market-places of towns. The first theatre in England, the Blackfriers Theatre, was built in 1576, and the Globe, which is closely connected with Shakespeare, in 1599. And there were a number of others. The theatres of that time were nothing like the comfortable places we sit in today. They were rather rounded in shape, as a rule, open to the sky, without a roof, so that it must have been very unpleasant when it rained. The rich people had seats in raised balconies facing and along sides of the stage, the poor people stood in the pit in front. They ate fruit and sweets, smoked long pipes and laughed very much if the plays were funny.The stage itself was a raised wooden platform with no scenery. When the actors wanted to show the district in which a scene took place they simply put up a placard with the description of the district.There were no actresses at that time, and boys, who were trained for this purpose, acted instead of women. During the performance a man in the pit was much annoyed by a young couple next to him, who kept on whispering.“Excuse me,” he said, “but I can’t hear a word that is being said.” “I like that,” exclaimed the talkative young man. “It’s no business of yours, sir, what I am telling my wife”Once I offered a friend of mine to get two tickets for “Hamlet”. My friend suggested that I should book the tickets beforehand. I rejected this idea as at that time I did not realize it was so difficult to get them. However, I managed to get the tickets. We decided to meet at the theatre at half past six. I came in time and began to wait for my friend. Twenty-five minutes passed, but my friend didn’t appear. At seven sharp I had to enter. The lights were going down when I was looking for my seat. The play began, but I didn’t enjoy it. I was very anxious as I didn’t know what might have happened to my friend to prevent him from coming.
