Action 1
Phenomenon 1
Morning, living room. Lisa wakes up in her chair. Sophia did not let her go to sleep the day before, because she was waiting for Molchalin, and Lisa had to watch out for them not to be found together. Sophia asks how much time, and to convince her that it is time for the lovers to disperse, Lisa translates the watch’s arrow. The clock is beating and playing.
Phenomenon 2
FAMUSOV appears. He flirts with Lisa. Lisa tries to bring him to reason, says that Sofia can enter, she fell asleep just in the morning, and “the whole night read” in French. FAMUSOV: “Yves read the pro-from the small: she does not have a dream from French books, but I sleeps badly from the Russians.” Sophia calls Lisa, and Famusov tiptoes out of the room.

Lisa rebukes Sophia and Molchalin, that they are delayed. Sophia: “Happy

hours are not watched.” Leaving, Mulchalin encounters in the doorway with Famusov.
Phenomenon 4
Famusov surprised and advises Molchalin “for walks away choose a nook.” She is ashamed of Sophia for the behavior unbecoming for a young girl. “And all the Kuznetsk bridge and the eternal French, from there fashion to us, and the authors, and muses: destroyers of pockets and hearts!” . Famousov says that after the death of Sophia’s mother, all the worries about the upbringing of her daughter lay on his shoulders and he tried very hard: “There is no need for another type when the father’s example is in his eyes… Free, widows, I am the master… Monastic is known for behavior! ” He expresses discontent with modern mores, teachers who teach girls only to “dances and froth, and tenderness, and sighs.” He reproaches Molchalin, whom he favored. Sophia intercedes: “I went into the room, I fell into another.” He tries to calm his father and tells a dream that he was gathering grass in the meadow, and ” there was a nice man,
“” and insinuating, intelligent, but timid… You know who is born in poverty. “Famusov:” Oh, mother, do not finish the blow! Whoever is poor, you are not a couple. “Sophia continues to tell a dream – they were in a dark room,” the floor opened “- from there Famusov, he dragged Sophia with him, and” a lovely man “who, for Sophia” is more precious than all treasures ” monster. “Famusov sends his daughter to bed, and Molchalin offers to take up papers.” I’m afraid, sir, I’m deadly alone so that the multitude does not accumulate them… My custom is: it’s signed, so off my shoulders. ” Sophia continues to tell a dream – they found themselves in a dark room, “the floor opened” – therefrom Famusov, he dragged Sophia with him, and “monsters” torment the “dear man” who is more precious to Sophia than “all treasures.” Famusov sends his daughter to bed, and Molchalin offers to take up papers. “I’m afraid, sir, I’m deadly alone, so that a lot does not accumulate them… My custom is this: signed, so off my shoulders.” Sophia continues to tell a dream – they found themselves in a dark room, “the floor opened” – therefrom Famusov, he dragged Sophia with him, and “monsters” torment the “dear man” who is more precious to Sophia than “all treasures.” Famusov sends his daughter to bed, and Molchalin offers to take up papers. “I’m afraid, sir, I’m deadly alone, so that a lot does not accumulate them… My custom is this: signed, so off my shoulders.”
Phenomenon 5
Sophia and Lisa together. Lisa: “There will not be this pro-love in love… Your father is this: he would have wished his son-in-law with the stars and the rank… Here is, for example, Colonel Skalozub: and a golden sack, and marks the generals.” Sophia: “I do not care what’s for it, what’s in the water.” Lisa recalls Chatsky, with whom Sophia was brought up together. He left about three years ago, bursting into tears, because he foresaw that Sofia’s attitude towards him would change. Lisa: “Who is so sensitive, and cheerful, and sharp, like Alexander Andreich Chatsky?” But Sophia objects: “The hunt of wandering attacked him, ah, if anyone loves whom, why seek intelligence and travel so far?” Molchalin, according to Sophia, on the contrary – “the enemy of audacity”, behaves very modestly. Liza inappropriately recalls the story of Aunt Sophia, from which a young French lover fled. Sophia: “
Appearance 6 A
servant enters and reports about the arrival of Chatsky.
Phenomenon 7
Chatsky appears. He passionately assures Sophia that seven hundred versts galloped without rest to see her, but it seems in vain: she is cold. Sophia assures Chatsky that he is happy with him. CHATSKY: “Assume it’s so.” Blessed is the one who believes, the warmth in his world. ” Sophia compliments: “At seventeen you bloomed adorably.” He asks if Sofia is in love. She is embarrassed. Chatsky assures us that nothing interests him: “What will Moscow show me?” Sophia: “Persecution of Moscow: What does it mean to see the light, where is better?” Chatsky: “Where we are not.” Chatsky asks about common acquaintances whose life during his absence probably did not change at all. “Live with them tired, and in whom you do not find spots? When you move around, you will return home, and the smoke of the Fatherland is sweet and pleasant for us!” Speaking about education, Chatsky notes that in Russia “they are trying to recruit teachers from the regiment, the number is more expensive, at a price cheaper,” and “from the earliest days we have come to believe that we have no salvation without Germans”; Chatsky said that at receptions, in order to demonstrate his education, he is explained by “the confusion of languages: French with Nizhny Novgorod.” He remembers the “wordless” Molchalin. Sophia: “Not a man, a snake!” He asks Chatsky if he can talk about anyone without bile. Chatsky: “I love you without a memory.”

Famusov dictates to Petrushka the list of his cases for the week ahead: Tuesday – lunch, on Thursday – funeral, Friday or Saturday – the baptism of an unborn child.
Phenomenon 2

Famusov is wondering whether Chatsky has decided on marrying his daughter, since he must first ask him, and he would advise Chatsky: “Do not blubber, do not manage your brother in a bad way, but, most importantly, help yourself serve.” CHATSKY: “It would be nice to serve, to be served up sickly”. Famusov utters a monologue about his uncle Maxim Petrovich, who made a successful career, pleasing his superiors and ingratiated at court. Maxim Petrovich served under Catherine and, when it was necessary “to podsluzhatsya, Maxim Petrovich” bent in the bend. ” Once the old man slipped and fell during the reception in the palace, which caused the Empress to smile and approve. Then Maxim Petrovich fell for the second time, already on purpose, then for the third time. All the courtiers laughed. “Ah, how do you think?” In our opinion, it’s clever. “He fell painfully, got up great. But, it used to happen, who is more often invited to the whist? Who hears a friendly word at court? Maxim Petrovich! Who knew honor before all? Maxim Petrovich! Joke! In the ranks, who gives retirement? Maxim Petrovich! “CHATSKY:” Fresh legend, and hard to believe, “” he was famous, whose neck was more often bent “,” now laughter frightens and keeps shame in check “,” direct was an age of submission and fear, all under a mask of zeal Tsar “.Famusov frightens Chatsky’s speeches, and in an undertone he notes:” A dangerous man, “” What’s saying! And he says, as he writes! “,” He wants to preach freedom, “” He does not recognize the authorities! ” In the ranks, who gives retirement? Maxim Petrovich! “CHATSKY:” Fresh legend, and hard to believe, “” he was famous, whose neck was more often bent “,” now laughter frightens and keeps shame in check “,” direct was an age of submission and fear, all under a mask of zeal Tsar “.Famusov frightens Chatsky’s speeches, and in an undertone he notes:” A dangerous man, “” What’s saying!

On a visit to Famusov comes Skalozub. Famusov very happy. He believes that the colonel is “a respectable man, he grabbed signs of the darkness of distinction, not over the years and the rank is in order, not today or tomorrow, the general.” He adds that he is not in a hurry to give Sophia a marriage.
Phenomenon 4
By the precaution with which Famusov hurried to meet Skalozub Chatsky suspected that all the same Famusov would be happy to extradite his daughter for the colonel.
Phenomenon 5
Famusov fusses around Skalozub. Skalozub: “I’m ashamed, like an honest officer.” Famusov tries to talk with Skalozub about his relatives, as well as about his brother Skalozub, the hero. But Skalozub says that he is not interested in relatives, since he did not serve with them together, and his brother changed for the worse. In other respects Skalozub can speak only about service. Famusov hints that Skalozub’s career is very successful and “it’s time to get a general’s name”. Skalozub not want to get married. Famusov talks about society: “For example, we have had an old age, that it is honorable for your father and son: be poor, and if a thousand of two generic souls are typed,” he and the bridegroom “,” The door is unlocked for those called and uninvited, especially from foreign, although an honest man, at least not. ” Famusov notes, that the present old people are constantly picking on “to this, to this, and more often to anything, they will argue, make a noise and… go away,” the ladies – “judges everywhere, there are no judges over them,” the girls will not say a word in simplicity, all with antics, the French romances are sung to you and the top notes are brought to the military people and they are clinging. “And because patriots,” “Houses and everything in a new way.” Chatsky argues with Famusov. Chatsky utters a monologue:
Who are the judges? – For the antiquity of the years
To their free life, their enmity is irreconcilable, The
judgments are drawn from the forgotten newspapers of the
Ochakovsky Times and the conquest of the Crimea;
Always ready to fight,
They sing the same song,
Not noticing about themselves:
What is older, it’s worse.
Where, tell us, fatherland fathers,
Which we should take for samples?
Are not these people robbery rich?
Protection from court in friends was found, in kinship,
Magnificent building chambers,
Where poured out in feasting and begging,
And where foreign clients are not resurrected
Past survivors are desperate traits.
And who in Moscow was not clamped with mouths
Lunches, dinners and dances?
Is it the same, you to whom I still with veils,
For the designs of some incomprehensible,
Did the children take to bow?
That Nestor the rascals of the nobles, The
crowd surrounded by servants;
Striving, they are at the time of wine and fights
. Honor and life saved him many times: suddenly
he traded greyhound three dogs for them!
Or is there one more that for zatej
On the fortress ballet was driven away on many waggons
From mothers, fathers of detached children?!
He himself is immersed in the mind in the Zephyrs and in the Cupids,
Made the whole of Moscow marvel at their beauty!
But the debtors did not agree to postponement:
Cupids and Zephyrs are all
Sold out singly!!!
These are the ones who have survived to gray hair!
That’s to respect who we should be in the desert!
Here are our strict judges and judges!
Now let only one of us
Out of the young people, there will be – the enemy of the quest,
Without demanding places or promotions in rank,
He will cast a mind into science that hungers for knowledge;
Or in his soul, God himself will stir up the heat
To the arts creative, high and beautiful. –
They are that hour: robbery! fire!
And they will be a dreamer! dangerous! – The
uniform! one uniform! He was in their former way of life
Once sheltered, embroidered and beautiful,
Their frailty, reason poverty;
And we are happy for them!
And in wives, daughters – to the uniform is the same passion!
I myself have long ago renounced it from tenderness!
Now this is not childish to me;
But who would not have gotten involved after all?
When from the guards some from the court
came here for a while, –
Women shouted cheers!
And threw the cap into the air!
