10 years of Gogol Center
Hello, friends!
As we promised, we're doing everything we can to stay in touch with you, to keep in touch, to know about each other.
As you have learned, Gogol Centre is not a building. It's much bigger, stronger and more interesting. It's a generation. It's a "tribe." We noticed this from the letters and messages you sent for our anniversary. You have been writing to us for a whole year: from January 2022 to January 2023. A lot had changed during this year. The war has broken out. Gogol Centre was closed. Life has divided into BEFORE and AFTER. We have decided not to change anything in your texts and keep the historical chronology of these "letters to the theatre". What you wrote to us shows that for you (and for us, by the way), Gogol Center turned out to be not just a place on the map of Moscow, but a real power place. A place that, in one way or another, helped all of us to form our human, artistic, and moral position.
That is why we decided to celebrate Gogol Centre's 10-year anniversary together with you and to launch an online platform. There we will show performances online that were in repertoire on Kazakov 8. If some of you haven't seen them because you are in other cities, now you will have this opportunity! But that's not all...
Every year, on 2 February, we got together and we had fun, we joked and celebrated Gogol Centre's birthday by presenting beautiful silver badges for the best work in a season.
We will show you our last concert, which we recorded on 2 February 2021. It was quite a complicated moment in our lives: we already knew what's going on, we knew that the circumstances were becoming catastrophic. The war had not yet started but there was already some tension in the air. You could probably see and feel it in the recording you are looking at.
I should add that feedback is very important to us, so please send your feedback and suggestions. Our social media continues to work as it did, but now there's an online platform as well. Hooray!
With big pleasure I congratulate everyone on the 10th anniversary of Gogol Centre and on the fact that we continue to be together, albeit virtually! After all, this is what the theatre is all about - loving each other, making each other happy and supporting each other in times of need. I wish you, like to all of us, to remain human, to take care of our faces and, of course, not to get involved in war.
