      Russians adore partying. If a party takes place in a restaurant, keep in mind that it’s different from American one. It’s not just the place to eat, but the place to feast. It’s always more food and drinks that anyone can consume. And, of course, there will be a lot of jokes, dancing and fooling around. Most likely you will be seated at a big table where everybody can see each other and feel that they are part of the group.
 
       You’ll definitely want to dress up for a party with Russians. Men wear suites with ties. And women…. Generally Russian women care greatly about their appearance. They are stylish and never leave the a house wearing rumpled or stained clothes. (The neighbors are watching!) For a party they may dress quite provocatively to a foreign eye, but it does not mean anything bad. High heels, make up, nice looking hair, jewelry – everything should match.

        Чеховский "Медведь", написанный больше 100 лет назад, в 1988, году всегда имел успех у публики. Характеры героев прописаны с любовью и с мягким юмором. Хорош "нестарый помещик" Григорий Смирнов, простодушный и мужественный. Великолепна "вдовушка с ямочками на щеках" Елена Ивановна Попова. С каким блеском проводит она она свою партию извечного поединка между мужчиной и женщиной. Конечно, она побеждает. Побеждает благодаря своим чарам-обаянию, интуиции и кокетству. И Смирнов счастлив быть побежденным такой женщиной. Так, может быть, никакой борьбы и не было, а просто встретились двое уставших от одиночества людей? Как поется в песне: "просто встретились два одиночества?"

        Интересно, что в Луке, лакее Поповой ничего лакейского нет, скорее Лука- член семьи, обожающий... Read more »
