Quotes

  • "Moskvich Muravitsky subscribed to the Rostov history, of course, not only because the town is cute, don't want instagram . For him it is more important that the theatre is a non – governmental and doesn't have to be answerable to anyone for the artistic part. More exactly, there is investor Samoylov, but he is a living, concrete person, here – another form of accountability and other criteria. They can be discussed, they are above the law. And the second thing: "18+" is a startup and it's not someone's ready turret with history" — Lyubov Mulmenko, 2013.
