Aleksandr Aronin

Thirty-two years after his live reading of Alexander Pushkin’s novel on Leningrad Television, actor Sergei Yursky comes back for another close read in this eight-part television production celebrating the 200th anniversary of the poet’s birth.

A television version of the award-winning stage adaptation of Eugène Ionesco's tragic farce, mounted in 1994 for Moscow's School of Contemporary Plays Theatre and revived for television in 2009.
