Raskolnikoff performance in the city of Konaev

A classic production with modern elements, understandable to audiences of all ages, where reflections on faith and morality are intertwined with a dizzying detective plot, and from philosophy to murder, from Rodion Romanovich Raskolnikov's room to the house of the old protsentritsa is only 730 steps.

A penniless and morbidly proud student, Raskolnikov decides to test whether he is capable of an act that elevates him above ‘ordinary’ people. To do so, he murders the loan shark - and then her sister, who happened to be at the scene of the crime.
