The performance, doomed to success from the very beginning, has become a kind of excursion into the past for modern residents of Odessa, where a wonderful and incomparable world of Odessa courtyards opens.      ... The entourage of the Odessa courtyard with drying linen, a table for dominoes and evening tea parties, masterfully reproduced on the stage, typical residents of old Odessa, headed by Rosa-Moldavanka, transfer viewers to the distant 20s of the last century. From here, as conceived by the authors of the play, the era of Odessa courtyard songs began, loved not only by the inhabitants of South Palmyra, but also the entire Soviet Union: “Salon Tango,” “A Step Forward and Two Back”, “Public Women,” “Zhora, Hold My Mac” , "Alyosha roasted on the button accordion," "From the Odessa kichman ...", "Faceted glasses."      Theater actors not only sing to the accompaniment of live instruments, but also play a mini-performance for each song with scenes from the life of the Odessa courtyard, colorful, small-town dialogs, inimitable emotionality, humor, dancing, scuffles and friendly gatherings.      Well, of course, the incomparable Odessa bull-calves are a traditional snack during the yard gatherings, which until today could only be seen on the stage of the Theater on Nezhinskaya.
