The Kaluga Philharmonic hosted the premiere of the immersive performance "Polite People" about military operations in the Donbass. According to the local television channel Nika TV, during the production, actors dressed in Ukrainian special forces uniforms took the audience “hostage” and fired into the air. Screams were heard in the hall. Then the actors took one of the spectators backstage and "shot".
Local actor Vilen Babichev told the channel that he played "the main negative role, which should show all viewers the essence of the enemy that Russia is fighting."
“The audience literally sniffed gunpowder. In the production, they used blanked weapons, and the artists performed in real uniforms of special forces, ”the channel reports.
It is planned that the performance "Polite People" will be shown in 12 cities of Russia.
