“A man like hot cakes”: performance, reviews, content

“A Man Like Hot Cakes” is a performance that collects reviews mainly among young people thanks to the participation of the former heroine of the television show “Dom-2”, which has been shown on TNT for many years.

On the one hand, participation in the production of Olga Buzova ensures enthusiastic public acceptance, stable ticket sales and a lot of flattering reviews, especially on the pages of the performer of the leading role in social networks, but this is a big minus.

Demand Buzova distracts from the performance itself, and some spectators repels from visiting the theater initially. Not everyone wants to be near the crowd of fans of the former TV heroine.

The story of the introduction of Buzova into the troupe did not benefit either. Prior to her, the role in the entreprise was played by Maria Gorban, who was familiar to many on television series. After the premiere of the production of “The Man Like Hot Cakes”, reviews of the performance in Moscow called it “talented and promising.”

Scandalous excitement filled the pages of both performers on Instagram, providing free advertising for the performance, but at the same time giving it some unpleasant “sweetheart”. Meanwhile, this is a good comedy with quite interesting content, which you can safely go to on Friday evening for relaxation and positive emotions.

What is the performance about?

After the production of “The Man Like Hot Cakes” was first held at the pop theater, reviews of the performance, with the exception of those that were dedicated exclusively to female leading actors, noted that this was a “comedy-whirlwind” with dynamic and interesting content.

This is a simple everyday story, staged by director Alexander Gorban and intended solely for relaxation and laughter, the performance does not affect any serious topics.

The essence of the plot is that the main character is in search of a man of dreams, but she has only one criterion - the financial security of the future prince. It is better, of course, that he be an oligarch, but the modest owner of the bank is also suitable.

Of course, the man is there, and the happy beauty is about to go on a honeymoon, but here, the news falls like snow on his head - the prince is married, happy in marriage, nothing shines on the girl. The heroine is upset and is going to brutally take revenge, ruining the life of her failed husband by notifying her wife of her husband’s moral appearance.

Events are superimposed on each other very quickly, and the laughter in the auditorium does not cease throughout the entire action.

What do they say?

“A man like hot cakes” is a performance, the reviews of which, unfortunately, mainly come down to a comparison between Buzova and Gorban, which is based not on their role, but solely on the personal perception of these girls.

It is actually impossible to say that one of them is better than the other on the stage, because the heroines of Gorban and Buzova are completely different. The first presented her character as a fatal vamp woman, cold, prudent and a little vulgar, such as is customary to interpret such images in the theatrical environment. The second depicts an emotional, but near-by doll, which is incredibly many in the capital's streets.

If you do not go into the presence of professional tricks, poses and pauses, then the heroine in Buzova’s presentation is much more vital and real than the character of Gorban, but not at all funny. Although this does not spoil the performance at all, since the action is full of humor of KVN-schiki and comedian.

However, tickets for this production are sold out very quickly, and the laughter in the hall does not stop even for a minute, that is, if you want to have fun and have fun going to this comedy makes sense.
