The Moscow Art Theatre Museum, together with the School of Historical Sciences and the School of Design of the Higher School of Economics, has prepared a multimedia online exhibition about Stanislavsky's legendary 1909 production of Turgenev's "A Month in

The exhibition is a journey through interactive locations recreated from the original sketches of Mstislav Dobuzhinsky, who was the designer of the 1909 production. And one can not only wander about the display but also interact with the principal characters of the play, and if not father children with them, as in The Sims, then at the very least learn a few rather fun facts about the production.

In short, take a look behind the scenes! In my view, this is not the most common of invitations, so it is worth attention.
