Slava Polunin's Colourful Kingdoms at the Garden in Moscow
This cold Sunday evening I can think only about last weekend. There was a day of Moscow, so there were huge celebrations.
Moscow reached the 867-th year. It isn't a jubilee, but the last two years there were vast improvements in the Moscow people environment. We have a lot of renovated streets with beautiful lampposts and without wires above your head. We have marvelous pedestrian areas, paid parking and absolutely clean parks with benches. Thus, it was decided to show people a new beauty.
Of course, there were concerts, fireworks, festivals, walking tours and carnivals. Everything was for free. By the way, the first weekend of September is the best time to visit Moscow. It's still warm and each year it's a day of Moscow.
Talking about us, we spent two days at the Bauman Garden, which transformed into a magic place with Colorful Kingdoms. The author of this performance is a well-known Russian clown Slava Polinin. He did the same show in Saint-Petersburg, but people paid for entrance. In Moscow it was for free.
I'm curious, whether Slava Polunin is a worldwide-known person or not. He emigrated to London at the end of 80's, won something at the Edinburgh theatre festival several times and he's living in Paris now. He is on the left on my photo.
I have been to his famous Snow Show and I'd love to visit again. I like what he is doing, because I think he is a wise man. He is trying to save people from their own mind boundaries. One of the inscriptions at his Colourful Kingdoms read: "Coming back to a real world, try to save a magic inside you".
This garden had an alluring attraction, because you could dress like any character, you could be another person or you could understand yourself better. Moreover, you could feel safe and warm like you were at a fairytale.
I will miss Slava Polunin's heartwarming place.
