In the silence of Moscow's alleys, under the shade of centuries-old trees, there are hidden stories that have not yet been told. In one of these corners of Moscow, under the shade of Moscow Art Theatre, an amazing event occurred, which was preserved in memory only in the form of a parable.
The weather was warm but cloudy, and a light breeze whispered among the leaves, as if conveying ancient secrets. That evening, a new play, full of drama and emotion, was being performed on the stage of the Moscow Art Theatre. The audience gathered in the hall waited for the performance to begin, not suspecting that a no less exciting story would unfold behind the scenes.
That evening, a private merchant, Ivan Alekseevich, came to the theater, a man who had achieved great heights in his business. His passion was art, and he never missed an opportunity to enjoy the skill of the actors. However, it was not only the performance that caught his attention. Behind the scenes, in the dark corridors of the theater, Ivan encountered something that made his heart beat faster.
In the shadows stood a ghost, whose figure was transparent but clearly visible. Legends about spirits inhabiting the theater had been around for a long time, but to meet one of them in person was unexpected. The ghost, as if sensing Ivan's interest, drew him into the conversation.
"Fear me not, good merchant," the ghost whispered, his voice like the rustling of leaves. "I am here to tell you of what is forgotten by men, but not by nature."
Ivan listened, amazed, to the spirit's story about the ancient forest that once stretched out on the site of the current theater. In these forests, the ghost said, even before the city appeared, animals and birds lived, and people came for inspiration and strength. The forest was a source of wisdom and strength for those who knew how to listen to its whisper.
They, the people, forgot about their roots, dissolved in the bustle and affairs. But the ghost, connected with this land, kept the memory of the past and dreamed that someone living now would remember the beauty of nature and pass this knowledge on to others.
Inspired, Ivan decided that it was his duty to remind people of the importance of nature and art, their interrelation and harmony. He began to support theaters and artists who glorified nature and its eternal beauty in their works.
Thus, thanks to the meeting with the ghost, the merchant Ivan Alekseevich not only gained a new understanding himself, but also inspired others to search for harmony between man and nature, art and life.

Thank you and Masha for yesterday!
The speakers are happy. The connection in the headphones often failed, especially at the checkpoint, but this is our current life situation. It was audible if they were standing close, no further than 1.5 meters. Colleagues have already asked for your contacts. I will gladly share and will be glad to have a new opportunity to work with you. Special thanks to the Director for the Bureau

I wanted to express my gratitude once again for the wonderful excursion on Saturday - we really enjoyed the walk, the information and the communication with you, then we discussed for a long time what everyone remembered and what struck them. It would seem that you have lived in Moscow all your life, there was Moscow studies at school, but it turns out that you still don’t know so much!! In general, thank you very much, my mother said it was the best gift for her birthday!

Note: Review of the excursion-performance, which the guide Alexander specially developed as part of the order "Dream Tour".
"Theater capital" - an author's route through the places of Meyerhold, Stanislavsky, Nemirovich-Danchenko, Tairov (undeservedly forgotten, it was he who created the current Pushkin Theatre on Tverskoy Boulevard).
Two and a half hours of fascinating stories and urban theatre legends. I'll tell you one:
The great composer Sergei Prokofiev lived in Kamergersky Lane. And he managed to die on the same day as Stalin. There was a terrible crush in Moscow, everything was blocked off, the entire capital wanted to say goodbye to the leader. So, to see Prokofiev off, the coffin was carried out from Kamergersky Lane on the roofs. I can vividly imagine this picture.
