Voskresinnia's confrontation with their interpretation of Chekhov’s masterpiece The Cherry Orchard. The theme of the changing values of a society that has grown complacent, is still relevant today. These Ukrainian artists only touch the tip of the iceberg, while the audience feels it has been taken on a journey to vanity, yearning and a painful loss of time. Voskresinnia combines dramatic sets and dynamic music, both of which are complemented by captivating special effects. Duration 60 minuts

.. this is what the presentation was one of the most shown at the festival. The director has focused primarily on the transfer of the image world of dreams and illusions Chekhov characters - hence the scene with the dancing puppets on stilts next to the dream of a happy childhood, the owner, walks in dressed in white and moving on stilts, people waiting on the thriving orchard, carefree fun commoners. The imaginary part of the reality of the estate was the most colorful residents, and the most interesting side show, which next to the value of the visual interpretation was valid. Chekhov boring world without hope of improving the situation of the bankrupt estate is turned into the world of memories, reckless and bordering on the insane fun main character Lyubov Raniewska, and other residents of Cherry Orchard.

The play "The Cherry Orchard, " the Ukrainian Theatre Voskresinnia remain for long in the memory of spectators 27th Street Theatre Festival, which ended on Sunday in Jelenia Gora.

Beautiful and clever story about the passing of paradise lost and touched even those who do not know of Chekhov. Lviv Theater Voskresinnia successfully translated it into a circus (march of the gladiators), clowning and satire (Family walking on stilts). Liked the game very expressive of actors, especially girls reproducing the main character. ALKA,   Polska the Times GAZETA WROCŁAWSKA 09.08.2009

The performance is very Chekhov-style and at the same time very modern and actual. Very inteligent and very creative. It is a producer’s performance. Just from the first seconds of the performance spectators are removed to the age of cherry orchards...
At the same time actors clearly declarate by visual effects (scenography – Alla Fedoryshyna) some “retreat of person, who plays” from all the events on the scene. Ranevska-Fedoryshyna shows to the spectator all palette of her hero’s feelings…     The Mirror of week, nr 21 (700) 7 .06 2008

t's hard to imagine a street full of nostalgia present "The Cherry Orchard," but the theatre of Lviv, although presented mass spectacle, full of rushing the elements, has not lost the charm of Chekhov, by himself called comedy. Comedy is a bitter, marked by transience, so returning to the playground smacks funeral, because the hatchet after the final - the sale of the orchard - hangs in the air. Internal unrest calm you are not imported into the province, the sounds of Italian tarantella, polka galopki Vienna, the Argentine tango. And when the ax finally falls, this will be the Wagner "Die Walkure canter," and devoid of trees flowers (including hangers, chandeliers, hand) as a blush. In light of the fire rush to the square cars, bikes, scooters, shooting fireworks into the sky and the bells are rung. And the spirit of Chekhov is still in the present.

Colored searching for the lost orchard  
How to translate classic scene to the language of the street? On this question, the answer  - Voskresinnia from Lviv gave today, in the second day of the XXVIII International Festival of Street Theatre Theatre , a comedy of Chekhov's" Cherry Orchard "interpreted in the space of Town Hall Square. Is the translation has gone? "The Cherry Orchard" is next to the "Three Sisters" one of the most emblematic works of Russian playwright. Who does not know the works of the classical form, does not know the exact content watching the street version. Spectator "unprepared," and this is usually the recipient of a statistical piece of street theatre, the representation of perceiving a number of associations and a lot of colorful images of beautiful spots built by Ukrainians in the vision of the work of Russian classics.
 It is thus the title "The Cherry Orchard", associated with Eden, which played out scenes range from love and happy to sad and nostalgic. It is the joy of two main protagonists, who exude feelings remain among the branches of flowering and "smelling" sour cherries (the viewer imagines the smell). Among the trees appear  stilt walkers, and another characteristic of the world presented the Russian types. It is a wonderful scene where the main characters - in love and their family - celebrate a dignified walking on stilts. There are satirical episodes, taken from the circus alive, even one with a mighty fat man, who at the gladiator march lugging buckets of water, and later - with his antagonist, competes in the sit down on a board with nails .
But this paradise will soon be over, and inform the multilanguage message that the August 22 Cherry Orchard - us treat this as a proper name - will be sold. That message sounds like the announcement at a crowded train overheard the age megaphones, is repeated several times. In the end user changes the owner who destroys it. This is accompanied by Russian sadness coupled with an acute drinking, which turns everything into a game, despite destination.

The Performance by Voskresinnia is a great metaphor of paradise lost and the eternal quest for happiness is still fleeing. Shown in a convincing and colorful way. Expressive playing actors, actresses especially reproducing the main character. Girl with a disability as well hide your weakness that you can see it only if, after the applause leaves the scene. In "The Cherry Paradise" is a lot of props. Maybe a little too much "is also an interesting soundtrack. Unfortunately, it happens sometimes the quality of "telephone." Who knows? Why not just meant to be? However, by the (d) effect of some of the messages sound like gibberish.

Despite these shortcomings hours devoted to art is certainly not time wasted. And it's hard not to have the impression that at both the technical and mental, "The Cherry Orchard" is one of the best presentations in the history of the Festival.

(...) And at the end of the eventful day, on the Boleslav the Brave square appeared Lviv Theatre Voskresinnia giving the show called "The Cherry Orchard. " In contrast to the presentation of the originals Chekhov shows there was not a shred of inactivity. The artists created a beautiful spectacle in visual terms. Their energy, despite the cold , warm audience gathered in the square. A stroll on stilts, with umbrellas in hand between the hangers imitation cherry tree was a memorable moment of the play.                                   Anna Hazuka, Dziennik Teatralny Bielsko-Biała. 24 maja 2010.

The performance “The Cherry Orchard” of the Lviv theatre “Voskresinnia” became the real event of the festival. It was shown on the first day of the festival on the Serpukhov square, surrounded by the sounds of evening coolness. The performance is directed by Yaroslav Fedoryshyn, a student of Anatoliy Efros, theater play lover, a master of irony.  "The Cherry Orchard" is spontaneous and is built on opposites. Performance is colored by tones of something supernatural that is beyond the realistic drama frames. Herman Hesse, describing a world, created by Franz Kafka, noted that "it is unknown how he appears in the kingdom of visions which is characterized by ghostly unreality, or looks like a dream, like a burning reality”. The performance of Yaroslav Fedoryshyn is also such a distant unreality, sinking in the darkness that blows with the live fire, and dissolves in the night.High "Chekhov people" who were on stilts, in white costumes and with white umbrellas, hovering in space of flowering cherry trees, were looking down without noticing that under the flowering branches – was iron frame. Cherry trees, made of iron hangers, having lost their tender petals, are surrounded by buckets. The house of Ranevska - a pile of sand, as in children's sandboxes, is shown as an attempt to build a castle from the water. Sand pyramid is tied up by a pole with wheels, as at fairs. A moment later, she seems like the grave, where instead of the cross is broom. Play is enigma, puzzle, rebus. A picture is distorted and is constantly changing. After a couple of months the performance seemed to be a prediction of a fiery 2010 summer - with parched fields and the black, charred trees, that would smell for a long time.
