In St. Petersburg there is one special theater - he is puppet. Wooden actors sing "Beatles", read Shakespeare and dance ballet is not worse than Nikolai Tsiskaridze. He invented this all Eugene Golubeva (she is the same Radovoye Zhenya Glucc). And I composed a fairy tale about the African princess vampka. The puppet world quickly loved not only simple audience. Therefore, the audio version of the fairy tale about the adventures of the princess with an unusual name was voiced by Yuri Galtsev, Maxim Leonidov, Sergey Chigrakov and many other stars.
"BITL" meter growth
When the "beautiful vamet" began to record, the famous participants were not supposed. But soon Evgeny understood: each character can only sound a particular person whose voice she hears in this hero. Good-natured, but with the slicer of the king immediately agreed to play Yuri Galtsev. Mrs. Barachlova (almost modern Baba Yaga) spoke as the author of Masyani Oleg Kuvaev. Maxim Leonids literally fell in love with his self-confident businessman, and Sergey (Chizh) of the Chiographs was very happy to become a wizard of time.
A touching story happened to Oleg Anofrieh - the star of the Soviet Multi-Music "Bremen Musicians. The role of the fountain in the fairy tale was ten. Who only did not come to the studio - nothing worked. In parallel, Eugene corresponded with Oleg Andreevich and consulted on "fabulous" issues. Desperate to find the right voice, Zhenya, pulling the arrogance, wrote anofriev: "Without you, the fairy tale does not want to end." And received the answer: "Send the text." The next day, glucke had a recorded file. Together with "Thank!" The author of the vapika wrote a master that he could not offer a large fee, but some amount for work by artist will allocate. "This is your gift to you," answered Anofrey. And the fairy tale was completed.
On the stage, vampuk accompany the puppet musicians. John Lennon - the leader of the puppet rock band - came out just as a real. True, the growth of small Johnny is just 69 centimeters, and the weight is one kilogram. But glasses, a suit, guitar - all "like big." And he sings in a play live - his voice "Bitla" lent the leader of the group "Cafe" Alexei Smirnov.

Vampka - "Prince" name
Love for ideas from Zhenya began in childhood. She was a reading girl. He hys up for a massive room door with a book and sits quietly there. Home all the time was afraid to fit it and entered the room carefully. In one of the books, she first saw a puppet theater in the picture. And then a miracle happened - because of the door jamka, Zakka spoke with her. It was a glove doll, put on hand. The first of those who knew how to laugh and cry. As a result, Zhenya arrived at the "puppet" Faculty of Ligitmik. And 8 years ago, she had a popular radio host, the "Vampuk" theater concert appeared - so calls her brainchild Eugene. All dolls did her former fellowship of the glory of Zubkov - now he lives and works in the Czech Republic.
The name of the vapot name more than a hundred years ago invented by Prince Volkonsky. He was sitting on the cabbage in Mkate, and his friend girls brought flowers with a song "You bunch, you a bunch, you hand a bunch of colors." The phrase has entered the prince. After that, they were written by a mini operator parody.
"And now this word denotes stencils, stamps in art," Evgenia explained, "and I like to play with stamps and turn them into a fun fairy tale. My vapook added a nickname "beautiful." In general, if you listen to the names of the heroes, such as big flies or Danila Gorynych, then you will understand that in the plot it is an ordinary Russian folk fairy tale with different kingdoms, adventures and modern songs, of course. Rock musicians are needed for driving. In the old vinyl tales of the type of "Bremen Musicians" also play rockers.
Probably, because of the drive on the "vampuk" and adults go. Once before the ticket office for tickets, a queue of 30-40 years was lined up for the play. It was a big company. "Where are your children?" - asked Cassis. "We are children! We want to feel them, let us please. We will behave approximately. "
Princess Hipster
"I am a creative, everything comes from the idea," the author told about the birth of the show, "the dolls came up with the musicians. Then he told his friend in detail how anyone looks, and then asked them to do. This was born vampka and all puppet rock band. The princess itself does not look like me on me, and the artist says that he scored such a girl like me. In general, she is a blonde on long legs, modern, but strange. Hipster. And I am the most common one, it seems to me, just all the time I get into some unusual situations.
As soon as Glory began to "strict" dolls, Evgenia met on the air of the musician Sasha Smirnova, who faded her children's poems. He made the arrangements of the songs, and in the day the guys wrote in his studio the first sample for the future and now the famous fairy tale "Beautiful vampka", and six months later came to the stage. Since then, the fairy tale visited many festivals, already played under 800 concerts, large and small. And now Zhenya dreams of making a music movie on the "vampka". Dolls are also dreaming, and the thought is material ... In the work of the puppetier helps her daughter, red-haired Solwea, who with a red diploma graduated from SPbSU, knows the languages and translates the speech of the heroes of fairy tales in different countries.
Now in St. Petersburg Puppet Theater, except for the vampka and her friends, there are still brother foxes and brother rabbit - the heroes of the "Fairy Tales loud". Alexander Timofeevsky, author of the text of the "Crocodile Gena Songs", gave the theater to the "Clowning" fairy tale. With Irina Exena, the sister of the Great Opera Singer, Eugene together reads at the concerts "Black Chicken", "Skate-Gorboon", "Town in Tabakcoque", Pushkin's fairy tales and plays of such a "storyteller" like Shakespeare.
In the repertoire of the puppet theater Evgenia Golubva - not only children's fairy tales, but also serious productions. For example, "Othello"

"Othello" - an adult fairy tale
"Of course," Othello "- the thing awesome and ends badly, but the morality is powerful there," Evgenia explains. - This is a new formulation of the theater based on the artistic reading of two actresses, two women accompanied by dolls and a live guitarist.
The premiere of Shakespearea took place on the day of all lovers. Delight from the dialogues of the playwright and knowledge of the human nature was sincere. Here everything, as in life - passion, jealousy, envy, however, is not true. Yes, the dolls are intertwined with hands with live people. The spectacle is unusual.
For me and "Othello" - a real fairy tale. I do not think that they were invented only for children. At the time of Charles Perro, they told in a circle of courtiers, and the "blue beard" has a preface that the wife must obey her husband. Over time, the preface escaped somewhere, and the fairy tale is still told, - Evgenia explained.
"I play all my life in the dolls," Eugene admits

"I still play dolls"
She continues to host ethers on the radio, now it is Radio Imagine - a station popular in St. Petersburg. Guests go to the ether by the crowd, especially the studio open, is located in the heart of the city, the huge window goes to Zhukovsky's street, all passersby make her, and someone stops and listens. In general, the glycc is a variety of life between the theater, radio and children's books. She calls it a "Wheel System": one gives strength for another. And in the summer, Eugene starred in two TV shows: "Secrets of the investigation" and "Menta Wars". The cinema is also interested.
"I play all my life in the dolls," Eugene admits. - Sometimes it even seems to me, they guide me. For example, now in the theater lives an old Japanese doll, samurai, she does not want to go on stage, but she likes to ride everywhere. In the summer, we are going to Baikal, there will be a festival "Cultural Capital", and I know for sure that I will take a doll with me. And someday samurai will speak. The doll can not be expressed specifically and contrived, the voice should be born himself, as well as her behavior. When I talk to a doll, I have such a feeling that I just give her my breath and give her fingers through my fingertips, but this is some kind of first impulse, and then she does everything herself.
