Who The Heck Knows
October 16, 2024 (Richmond Hill Theater, Toronto)
Movie and theater stars Dmitry Nazarov and Olga Vasilyeva invite you to the premiere of their new play, the tragicomedy “Who The Heck Knows!”
What if, in a whimsical twist, God decided to playfully challenge humanity after the apocalypse, leaving behind Adam and Eve, both now in their ripe age of 90, on the ruins of Babylon? Their mission: to prove that humanity deserves a second chance. And now the snake will have to come up with something more elegant than an apple, since chewing it with dentures is not so easy. How can these two aged people, who hate each other, find the way to save the world? Only by falling in love.
A performance based on Alexey Arbuzov’s play “Old-Fashioned Comedy”, which was in the plans of the Moscow Art Theatre for the 2022-23 season. “In April 2023, we were supposed to start rehearsals, and in June, release the performance on the Small Stage. In early January, our defamation and exile happened. We found ourselves overboard from the Art Theatre and Russia in an unexpected exile in France. But there is no force that can change our life and creative plans. We decided to create a performance in France.” (from an interview to Sergey Elkin in Chicago)
