Russia, Theater

Moscow's Culture Department, lead by the new role model for city officials Sergey Kapkov, has launched an experiment for theater-going foreigners: Performances in the capital’s theaters will now feature subtitles in English and German.

The idea is not new, but enacting it has taken a while. City officials are about to give thousands of foreigners permanently residing in Moscow and visiting the city a chance to fully experience its first-class drama school.

The long-awaited experiment will be introduced in theaters supervised by the Moscow Culture Department. Among the first to offer the new option will be Pyotr Fomenko Studio.

The subtitles will be in English and German languages.

According to Kapkov, performances with subtitles will run at least once a month.

Great the theater is now being translated. Now more of fine Russian theater can be enjoyed.

On a side note: Please dont send me geriatric filipina trolls or marine hand me downs. I only enjoy Japanese/Korean/Russ ian/Chinese/Vietname se/South American beauties under 33. Ask your filipina cow what "it makes me sick" means in a Marine Corps conversation?
