Give Up the Body
The play "Give Up the Body" is a sharp satirical comedy, where two worlds collide in a duel. On the one hand, there is the character Vasya, a native of Barnaul, whose presence causes only righteous irritation. On the other, there is Baba Nadya, a true Ukrainian woman who will not offend either herself or her home on her land. This is a story about how every living creature stands up for its space when an unwanted "guest" comes to it.
