The result is a new original story, the main characters of which, the girl Matilda and her brother Til, travel through fairy-tale lands. They will meet a variety of fairy-tale characters: the queen of the night, Napoleon cake, the keeper of time, monsters from the closet and many others - there will be fifty of them in total.
The performance premiered on November 30, 2017.

Staging plays for children is much more difficult than for adults. Young spectators do not know how to hide not only delight and admiration, but also indifference and disappointment. After finishing “The Blue Blue Bird,” the guys always leave the theater happy, with their eyes shining with happiness—an interesting plot and bright special effects invariably do their job.
From an article by Zinaida Nesterova (Trud, 2013):
75 years after the premiere of “The Blue Bird” at the Moscow Art Theater, in 1983, Natalia Sats will stage the ballet “The Blue Bird” to the music of Ilya Sats and Mikhail Rauchwerger. And this performance (which became a kind of symbol of the theater and remains in the repertoire to this day), like the sculpture above the facade, will become the Blue Bird of Fortune that Natalia Sats managed to catch.<...>
As a child, Natasha Sats watched the legendary performance of the Moscow Art Theater “Blue Bird”, the music for which was written by her father Ilya Sats. Little Natasha was very upset that the heroes of the fairy tale never caught the Blue Bird, and then declared: “And I will catch my Blue Bird!” In 1979, the magical Blue Bird on a golden harp adorned the world's first children's musical theater - its statue seems to float above the facade of the building.
Fragments from the book “Stories of My Life” by Natalia Ilyinichna Sats:
“For children, the theater has preserved one of its very first productions – the play by the Belgian playwright M. Maeterlinck “The Blue Bird”. This is a fairy tale play, the adventures of a boy and a girl who are looking for the Blue Bird. This is not an ordinary bird: whoever finds it will find happiness for all mankind. Children have to overcome many obstacles. They travel not only in space, but also in time: they visit both the past and the future, they find themselves in lands of fiction and dreams, the language of animals becomes clear to them. Everything is magical, everything is fantastic in this play: the plot, the characters, and the costumes.
The music of the performance also creates a mood of unusualness, a feeling of something fabulous. It blends wonderfully with what is happening on stage, complements and enhances the impression. It would seem that this music is simple and unpretentious... But how it sinks into the soul, into a person’s memory and continues to ring in the ears for a long time after the performance. This music was written by composer Ilya Sats.<...>
"The Blue Bird" was the best, the only children's performance of its kind of great art.<...>
“When I hear the name of Ilya Sats, I have an amazing, almost fairy-tale memory of the winter of 1912 in Moscow, of smoky sunsets over Presnya, of bells and the whistling of runners - about that old Moscow, where in a quiet alley near Okhotny Ryad already shone like some mysterious and a gem, the young Art Theatre.
I treated this theater with reverence, just like the rest of Russia at that time. For me, he was the embodiment of courage, progressive thought, new art, just published and not yet dimmed by the hot breath of time.
The first performance that I then saw at the Art Theater was Maeterlinck’s “The Blue Bird” with amazingly transparent and classical music by Ilya Sats. It seemed to me then that this music sounded among the shaggy snows of Moscow, like singing from the country where the action of “The Blue Bird” took place, like singing from those islands, distant as a dream, from where Maeterlinck’s sad voice was heard.
Sats' music was so clear that it immediately entered the hearts of our generation and remained there for the rest of our lives.
All of Russia sang then: “Farewell, farewell, it’s time for us to leave,” a slight sadness, farewell to loved ones conveyed to us our love for the art that was blossoming before our eyes. We became contemporaries of art history, and pride in his talent filled our hearts.” (K.G. Paustovsky)
The production of the full-length ballet “The Blue Bird” achieved significant success. The emblem of our theater, which arose from the most vivid impression of my childhood - the Blue Bird - turned into ballet through our common ups and downs. His favorite roots are in the music of his father, composer Ilya Sats, to the play by Maurice Maeterlinck, which has not left the stage of the Moscow Art Theater since 1908, the theater of K.S. Stanislavsky.
The new and new birth of what I once deeply loved is probably characteristic of me as a theater director. Is this bad? But, of course, the favorite themes of the music of my dear father Ilya Sats in the ballet had to receive a full symphonic development, sometimes rethinking. Composer Mikhail Rafailovich Rauchwerger, with his usual skill, presented us with a new, very remarkable score. Our conductor Leopold Gershkovich worked with him with inspiration. The librettists who had already worked together on “The Tsokotukha Fly” passionately did their job, and as a result, Boris Lyapaev’s production of “The Blue Bird” by children, adults, the public and the press was unanimously recognized as very successful.
My report, which discussed the creation of “The Blue Bird” at the Moscow Art Theater, was a particular success. It was, in fact, not a report, but, as the press wrote, “a one-man show.” I not only spoke, but played the piano and sang - the translator could barely keep up with me. The audience sometimes motioned for her to be silent, especially when I depicted the birth of the mise-en-scène found by K.S. Stanislavsky, L.A. Sulerzhitsky, I.M. Moskvin, and immediately ran to the piano to color the action with her father’s music. The episode caused an ovation when she told how, following the image of Water, the directors created the image of Fire. The table at which I stood was covered with a fiery red Chinese silk tablecloth that hung to the floor. And, imagine, during my story, our choreographer Boris Lyapaev appears from under the table, tears off the tablecloth and begins to play with it, as if with tongues of living flame. His improvisational dance became, as it were, the first splash of the future ballet “The Blue Bird,” staged by the theater much later.”
I went with my son and husband to the play Blue Bird! To be honest, I didn’t expect such an impression; I watched this performance as a child, but it didn’t make a strong impression on me, I don’t even know why, it was boring and uninteresting. But in this theater I was amazed by the performance of the actors, who literally take you to another world! My son is 5 years old, I thought he would get tired, but nothing of the sort, he looked on as if spellbound! Now I want to go to other performances of this wonderful theater. Thank you so much for the fairy tale and kindness!!!

I love the Moscow Art Theater since childhood! My mother is now an avid theatergoer, and in the distant 90s, a single mother with a meager teacher’s salary, who, in spite of everything, adored visiting the Temple of Melpomene, instilled this love in me. I brought my children to the legendary performance “The Blue Bird”, which I attended when I was still a little girl. How could it be otherwise? This mystical legend of the Moscow Art Theater, in which sounds and images come to life, where a fairy tale becomes a reality, and Maeterlinck’s whimsical fantasies become an undeniable reality, where two worlds merge together - the otherworldly and the real, has not left any viewer indifferent for many decades!

I decided to remind myself of the taste of childhood and went to the Blue Bird on January 20th. What joy I gave myself! What a delight I felt! The performance is lively and interesting. Arriving home, I, like the characters in the play, looked at the objects around me with different eyes and remembered that when I was a child, having attended this performance, I returned from the theater with the same impressions. Excellent scenography, good acting, music by Ilya Sats... But in general - real magic on the stage of the Moscow Art Theater. M. Gorky. And let it continue as long as possible...

Yesterday, January 12, 2019, I watched the play “The Blue Bird” with my grandson. We watched many children's performances in different theaters. But I wanted to write a review precisely after this performance, I just can’t help but write. My grandson and I are filled with delight. A magical, delightful performance. The acting, music, costumes, and scenery are simply mesmerizing. 2 hours in a fairy tale, in one breath. There was complete silence in the hall, even small children looked at the stage as if spellbound. Thank you very much to everyone for your professional work, for such a sincere gift for the New Year.

We watched the play “The Blue Bird” on January 2, 2019. A wonderful performance that teaches kindness, love and respect for loved ones, patience and mutual understanding. My 10-year-old daughter watched with great pleasure. The language of the performance is very accessible and understandable even to small children. The duration is also optimal for viewing with children. Thank you very much for the fairy tale and MIRACLE!!!
...Today we went to the Moscow Art Theater. M. Gorky watch the play “The Blue Bird”. A wonderful fairy tale performance. Pleasant music, lively scenery, bright, some of the characters' costumes are simply enchanting, and an exciting plot lure you into their nets and keep your interest at the limit until the final closing of the curtain. “We will follow the blue bird in a long line...” A fairy tale in which there is room for discovery for both adults and children. I really liked the performance, and when I got home, I watched the film too. The film is actually from my childhood. Now I perceived it differently. Only a happy person can make others happy. Now I want to re-read this work so that the picture in my head is complete...
Ulyana and Tatyana, September 25, 2018
This weekend, Ulyana and Tatyana visited the Moscow Art Theater. M. Gorky. We watched “The Blue Bird” - a legendary performance of the 20th century. On October 13, 1908, the play premiered on the stage of the Moscow Art Theater. The production was a huge success and remains on stage to this day. “The Blue Bird,” as before, “delights children and awakens serious thoughts in adults,” as Stanislavsky intended! On Christmas night, at the request of the fairy, the little heroes of the play set off to look for the Blue Bird - a symbol of happiness. And although the children return home without the Blue Bird, they discover for themselves and all of us that happiness lies in good deeds and in helping others. The performance is wonderful! Our girls understood the idea of the play, remembered the characters, reacted very emotionally, and the memories of the play remained bright and warm. It was the first time we went to such an adult performance; even the very atmosphere of the classical art theater, which was very special, made an impression on the girls.

January 21, 2018. The play “The Blue Bird” has ended, where my friend Roman Titov played Bread! Perhaps I have not seen such a spectacle for a long time, when at certain moments the audience (and this is a daytime performance, where mainly children) froze with delight, and there was such silence that you could hear your heart beating!!! How were young actors (mostly young people who were just starting their life on stage) able to achieve such success?! Of course, the school of the great master T.V. has an effect. Doronina.
In my opinion, "Blue Bird" Moscow Art Theater named after. M. Gorky is a must-see if you want to instill in your child a love of classical art theater. The daughter said: “But it would be great to combine ballet and drama; during the main musical theme I really wanted to see the backup dancers. But Baba Yaga is against it, it’s better to watch both and read the book. Then in your head and in your heart everything will work out correctly.
The action captivates from the first minutes. Moreover, it is precisely this chamber darkness, the play of light and shadow... Yes, this is a performance from the last century. When children still knew how to read long books, follow a leisurely conversation, look, think and not rush anywhere... A dark scene allows you to perfectly place light accents, immerses you in what is happening... Each scene is perfectly balanced - nothing superfluous, but all the main thoughts of Maeterlinck found reflection. The land of memories - how important it is to remember those who are gone, because they live only with our thoughts and memories. Palace of the Night - you need to be able to conquer your fears in the name of the main cause. And the most important thing is that you need to be able to give something dear to you in order to make another person happy, and then you will be happy too... All these thesis thoughts are not mine - they were voiced by the children after the performance. So the art hit the target...
