Olga Shorina

The eldest son, who left for St. Petersburg, where he works as a detective, comes to the family of a crooked merchant and shopkeeper Grigory Tsybukin. Parents decide to marry him - his son is already 28 years old. They find a poor, but beautiful, clean and modest girl who meekly marries an already worn-out and balding man from the city, decently "laying by the collar". There is a merry wedding, and the husband leaves, leaving another worker in the family...

An unmarried shy 40-year-old can’t find the courage to ask a woman on a date, so his womanizer friend, who promised to his friend’s parents he’d find him a girlfriend, sets out to find the perfect match.

Petya plays the dulcimer and loves his Muscovite with a Zaporozhets engine. Zhuzha loves twist and movies with Gerard Philip. The third one doesn't like to talk about himself. And it's better for others to keep quiet in his presence... The story unfolds in the 60s around a few days of the life of a young man named Petya, who fell in love with an older and more experienced girl who is unable to sort out her feelings.

Satirical operetta-buffe in three acts by composer Jacques Offenbach.
