Annotation

The play "The Cripple of Inishmaan" is directed by Yulia Evstifeeva and based on the play of the same name by Martin McDonagh. "A true sensation in European theatre," "a miracle of the contemporary stage," "the leading playwright of the 21st century," "the Tarantino of theatre"—those are the names the most rigorous critics of the theatre world have given contemporary Irish playwright Martin McDonagh.

On the small, abandoned Irish island of Inishmaan, the story of Billy the cripple unfolds, a man whose physical disability conceals an inner strength and depth.

The play "The Cripple of Inishmaan" is about the importance of accepting yourself and others, despite loneliness, fears, and social stereotypes.

This is a story about the desire to be needed and loved, about the pain of internal struggle and the fragile beauty of the human soul, which manifests itself even in the most difficult circumstances.

The Cripple of Inishmaan is a subtle, touching, and at the same time poignant look at human relationships and the search for one's place in the world.
