Musical Doktor Żywago / Doctor Zhivago / trailer / Białystok

A work recognized as one of the most beautiful stories about love in world literature. Full of emotions, timeless "love story" enchants and deeply moves next generations of fans. The complicated fate of the title character, Yuri Zhivaga, and his lover Lara Guichard, takes place against the backdrop of the historical transformations of 20th-century Russia. The musical, whose Polish premiere was prepared by the Podlasie Opera and Philharmonic, is an adaptation of the novel by Boris Pasternak, banned for many years in Soviet Russia. The typescript of the book secretly exported from the Soviet Union was first published in Italy. The West immediately appreciated the beauty and power of the work, awarding Pasternak the Nobel Prize for Literature, which the author, scared of the communist campaign, never took back. "Doctor Zhivago" is not only the story of a stormy romance, sudden gusts of heart, but a story about feelings accompanying difficult choices. In fact, the performance is a great declaration of love - valid regardless of time and place. Lucy Simon's compositions resound with powerful emotions and trembling of the heart - all that is most beautiful in the novel by the great Nobel Prize winner.

SHOW MORE
PLOT
The action of the musical takes place in the years just before the First World War, through the February and October Revolutions, the civil war, and ends in the times of the Soviet Union, it tells the story of the life and love of a doctor and poet, Yuri Zhivaga. Many related plots and events appear throughout the musical's material, but the main dramatic accent lies with its five heroes - three men in love with the same woman and two women in love with the same man. All of them are torn by the storms of war and revolution. Each of the heroes experiences personally the consequences of the collapse of the social and moral order in the world in which he lived.

STAGING
The staging refers to the times when the novel's action is originally set. The monumental scenery depicts the days of the fall of tsarism and the birth of the Soviet empire, and the atmosphere of the turmoil is realistically depicted by collective battle scenes with original choreography. The rich stage setting of the musical is accompanied by an extensive music layer in which you can hear the echoes of classical music of 20th-century Russian composers. The poetic attachment to the novel "Doctor Zhivago", containing twenty-five poems by Boris Pasternak, became the direct inspiration for the libretto of the play. The concept of the show also refers to the Hollywood adaptation of David Lean, awarded with five Oscars.
