Heart of a Dog

18+

An unprecedented creature will be born on the stage of Mark Weil's Tashkent theater "Ilkhom". A new heart will beat in the presence of the audience. But is it a dog's or a human's?
Today, 90 years after the creation of "Heart of a Dog", the issues of violence against the individual and the suppression of human nature have become even more pressing. Just as the monstrous homunculus Polygraph Polygraphovich Sharikov replaces Sharik the dog, so a modern person loses the last bits of his individuality. Television, businessmen, politicians and sects fill our consciousness with their content, creating our desires and habits. Independent choice has become an illusion for the majority. New demiurges and creators create their Adams and Eves, ideal for selling them forbidden apples. Not the chloroform of Professor Preobrazhensky, but the World Wide Web stupefies heads and creates new Sharikovs. The devastation in the minds is progressing, the cold blizzard of alienation has swirled people, and the Shvonders are rushing to take power into their own hands. Who can call themselves a completely free person today?
The dramatization uses the following texts: "Avesta", "Catechism of a Revolutionary" by S. Nechaev, "The Last Warning" by D. Orwell, "Targeted Shootings Against Corruption" by S. Stillavin, "Time to Divide" by S. Dzhumaev, "Transhumanoid" by A. Kim, N. Makarenko, "Babylon" by N. Makarenko.
