Gennady Trostyanetsky: "At the point - Petersburg - crosses all human passions! The scale of the novel - from space to the rain. Phantasmagoria - the most that neither is the modern genre. Travel by human passions and in St. Petersburg. Will the heroes, trapped in a meat grinder, endure their share of trials? Crumbling plans, fate, but suddenly reveals the truth, that capture the whole person! All his soul! How to live in an era of change?! What's left is the fifth year, and what even today a living pulse beats in every citizen? We put the questions, but we do not know the answers. We are not doctors , we are a pain! And the joy! And this is the theatral holiday".
