Murder in Chekhov's scenery
14.99 €

Actress Lionella Balandovskaya always dreamed of appearing in a Chekhov production. Then her chance arrived – in the play "Uncle Vanya," where she plays one of the lead roles. However, not everything is so simple at the provincial theater where Balandovskaya was invited. The small troupe is torn apart by internal conflicts and contradictions, and, of course, none of the locals were happy about the arrival of a metropolitan star. And then the unexpected happened: during a performance of Gogol's "Viy," the coffin containing the young lady, flying above the stage, broke free from its cables and fell, killing actress Karina Kropotkina. And this is not the first tragic incident in the theater: many years earlier, another servant of Melpomene, the young and beautiful Raisa Snegina, died. It is her ghost, according to theater veterans, that has haunted the actresses ever since. Her husband persistently urges Lionella to give up everything and return home, but she refuses to back down and is ready to participate in the investigation of both the new and old crimes.
