October 20, 2025. Government of the Nizhny Novgorod Region. Nizhny Novgorod Region. Nizhny Novgorod. The premiere of the play based on the humorous stories of Mikhail Zoshchenko, "Nervous People" (18+), took place at the Nizhny Novgorod State Academic Puppet Theater. This was reported by the Ministry of Culture of the Nizhny Novgorod Region. The production director is the chief director of the Volgograd Regional Puppet Theater, Ekaterina Urzhumova; the production designer is Varvara Probodyak; the lighting designer is Elena Drevalyova from the State Academic Bolshoi Theatre of Russia; the composer is Valeria Finkelshtein. The adaptation includes the stories "The Tsar’s Boots," "The Aristocrat," "A Victim of the Revolution," "The Bathhouse," "On the Tram," "The Actor," "Nervous People," "A Dog’s Sense of Smell," "Economy Mode," and "A Strong Woman." "Puppet theatre is not only for children. It is a living art capable of speaking to every adult about important things in a simple and metaphorical language. In the new production not only Mikhail Zoshchenko’s characters come to life, but also the very atmosphere of a bygone era, filled with subtle humor, absurdity and surprising warmth. We want the audience to see themselves in these stories, their own anxieties and funny moments, to feel how important it is to preserve respect for personal space, and to understand that kindness and attention to one another can overcome any alienation. Our play is an invitation to dialogue, where humor becomes a bridge to understanding," said Alla Zabegalova, director of the Nizhny Novgorod Puppet Theater. The theater company strove to masterfully recreate an atmosphere that transports the audience to Zoshchenko’s era. On stage — a "worn" man with a balalaika, a hysterical lady prone to heart palpitations, a citizen perpetually dissatisfied with everything. They all converge in a battle for silence and personal space. Through absurd everyday scrapes, driven to the grotesque by puppets, the directors expose eternal human vices — stinginess, vanity, stupidity, stubbornness, and an incredible ability to make a mountain out of a molehill. This is not merely a collection of jokes, but a mirror in which the viewer recognizes themselves with a smile, and sometimes with a slight shudder. Zoshchenko’s satire, translated into the language of puppet theatre, sounds even sharper and brighter. "The stories included in the play complement each other, creating a single picture of the absurd and grotesque world of the Soviet communal apartment of the 1920s–1930s. The main thematic focus is on conflicts between people living in the cramped space of a communal flat. These domestic quarrels and clashes of personal interests continue to occur in modern society. The problems of human relationships that Zoshchenko touched upon have not disappeared to this day. Therefore his works, like those of Shakespeare, Brodsky or Akhmatova, will always be relevant. I should note that the play features a character who is rather a generalized 'image of the writer' than a direct embodiment of Zoshchenko. This image is intended to show the process of creating the stories: how the writer draws inspiration from life, observing and recording the stories of his neighbors in the communal apartment. Thus the audience sees where the plots come from and how they are transformed into a work of art. Our play aims to give viewers not only a laugh at the stories but also an understanding of the writer’s fate, his personal drama and his contribution to Russian literature," explained the production director of the play, Ekaterina Urzhumova. "Nervous People" is a story about contemporary realities, about how we cope with internal conflicts and the challenges that life presents to us. The play is filled with deep emotions, witty dialogues and unexpected plot twists. The next performances of "Nervous People" will take place on October 27 and 28.
