Paccording to the artistic director, in the conditions of a special operation, it would be inappropriate to put material ironic on the topic of military operations. Some of the performances will not be presented in the new season due to the increased deadlines for obtaining the rights to the production Konstantin Khabensky Several productions of the Moscow Art Theater are planned for the new season. Chekhov was canceled due to the military operation in Ukraine, the artistic director and director of the theater Konstantin Khabensky said. According to him, the Moscow Art Theater had to abandon some of the performances announced in December—January, because «it is humanly wrong now to take material for the stage of the Art Theater, which was somehow ironic, fidgeting or had its own interpretation on a topic related to any military actions and related to between human tragedies». The artistic director offered in return to give the viewer something that would allow him to “look into himself”, calm down, hear others.
“A special military operation is underway. People die almost every day. <..."We are not obliged to comment on events, but to feel the situation, to feel the mood of the audience, to feel what they are coming to us for now, we must," Khabensky stressed at the troupe's gathering before the opening of the 125th theater season (quoted by RIA Novosti).
Another reason for the postponement of some premieres, he called the increased deadlines for obtaining the rights to the production, but this is “a matter of patience and time.”
After the start of the military operation in Ukraine, Khabensky wrote on Instagram (the social network belongs to the extremist and banned Meta company recognized in Russia) that he had never participated in the discussion of politics and was not going to. He said that in circumstances where people are dying every day, it is difficult for him and his colleagues to do their job, but they will continue to do it. “Because the theater is the place where they talk about a person, about the life of the human spirit, about the value of human life,” the actor and director explained.
