Gazprom Transgaz Nizhny Novgorod is a long-standing partner of the Piano Theater. The theater’s creative approach is based on stage improvisation, intuitive search, and artistic representation of relevant themes and images. The actors “create music with their bodies” by changing the manner and form of movement, feeling and thinking. This “visible music” is both the subject and the means of engaging in free dialogue with theater-goers, many of whom have no idea that the boys and girls on the stage cannot hear the applause.
