Спектакль поставлен народным артистом России, лауреатом четырех Государственных премий, президентом Александринского театра Валерием Фокиным. В основе постановки — повесть Льва Толстого «Смерть Ивана Ильича».

Unbridled joy before the closing of the coffin lid. The last days of the Weimar Republic. Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club as a symbol of the collapse of Germany. The musical drama directed by Evgeny Pisarev is a sharp anti-fascist statement embodied by dramatic artists.
