In the new episode of GlumOFF, we speak with Marina Davydova, theater critic, producer, former editor-in-chief of "Theater" magazine, founder of the NET (New European Theater) festival, and one of the key figures in contemporary theater, about art, culture, and humanity in an era of historical rupture. This conversation explores the fate of contemporary theater, the disappearance of entire cultural spaces, two emigrations, and two losses of home—from Baku to Moscow and Berlin. We discuss memory, identity, the Russian language, and Russian-language culture outside of Russia. We also discuss the role of the artist during wartime and what can be rebuilt and what can no longer be restored. Why theater is the most difficult thing to transfer from one culture to another, how German and Russian "seconds" differ, and what performances Marina Davydova would show to world leaders.
