STEPANAKERT RUSSIAN DRAMA THEATER presents “Advertiser. "Buy me if you can" The premiere of Armen Markarian's play will take place in January 2027. He knows how to sell everything: youth, beauty, love, success and even happiness. He knows what we fear, what we dream about and what words will convince us to buy something that seems impossible to live without. He advertises. Charming, witty, successful. A man who turned the desires of others into a profession, and the art of persuasion into a way of existence. But what happens when the illusionist is left alone with himself? When advertising formulas stop working, fatigue appears behind the professional mask, and behind the irony - loneliness, fear of time and the pain of lost love? In the tragicomedy monologue, behind the facade of dazzling success, a man appears who accurately guesses the desires of others, but is unable to understand his own. The irony gives way to a bitter confession, playing with words becomes an attempt to hear oneself, and a conversation about consumption becomes a reflection on life, love and the price of success. Laughter is also a commodity here: although in stock, the expiration date is indicated in small letters. On the stage there is a person and his reflection, a stream of words and silence where you can no longer hide from your questions. This is a story about the price of success, the illusion of control and the eternal search for what no amount of money can buy. Behind the satire on the modern world is the fate of one man. The author of the play and the director is Armen Markarian.
