Dead Man\u2019s Diary: A Theatrical Novel <\/a>by Mikhail Bulgakov. Directed by Igor Golyak. Adapted and staged by Arlekin Players \u200bTheatre at 368 Hillside Avenue, Needham, MA, through June 4.<\/p>\n

The words \u201cEnter if you dare\u201d flashed on the flat-screen TV mounted in the Arlekin Players Theatre lobby. Moments later, audience members were led into the performance area to see the company\u2019s staging of Dead Man\u2019s Diary: A Theatrical Novel<\/em>. After we were seated around what looked like an immense black shipping crate, the initial warning began to make sense. Through square viewing holes in the side of the box, one could see a man slumped over lifelessly on a bed, surrounded by men and women in dark coats and hats. Was this a theater performance? It looked more like some sort of bizarre public wake \u2014 we seemed to be peering into an aquarium of despair.<\/p>\n

The man on the bed soon gets to his feet, though his life hardly gets easier from there. He is Sergey Maksudov, a lonely writer whose latest novel has been ignored by the literary world. Desperate for his work to reach some sort of readership, he adapts it into a play, and is delighted when the script attracts the interest of one of Russia\u2019s leading theater companies. Of course, the stage world has a number of oppressive trials in store for Maksudov, thrusting him into a Faustian labyrinth in which censorship, contract disputes, and inflated egos abound.<\/p>\n

Dead Man\u2019s Diary<\/em> is based on a novel by Russian novelist and playwright Mikhail Bulgakov, whose works only gained world renown after his death. He also worked frequently with the Moscow Art Theatre; much of the satire of the theater world in the latter half of the play is drawn from Bulgakov\u2019s clashes with Stanislavski and other legends of the Russian stage. David Gamarnik as Maksudov brilliantly channels the spirit of an embattled struggling writer, alternately beaten down and fuming with rage when confronted with preening personalities and clumsy artistic failures. Though he is clearly drawn to the imaginative possibilities of theater, Maksudov feels little warmth toward its backstage intrigues and business machinations. Arlekin Players dramatizes the character\u2019s disdain for the bottom-line realities of theater production without flinching, refusing to shy away from the blackness and bleakness of Bulgakov\u2019s vision.<\/p>\n

Not only is this production\u2019s approach to Bulgakov\u2019s satire powerfully direct, it\u2019s also bursting with visual and auditory inventiveness. The seemingly boundless creativity of director Igor Golyak and his artistic team makes it easy to be swept up in Maksudov\u2019s passion and pain. Nikolay Simonov\u2019s scenic design and Stephen Petrelli\u2019s lighting work combine to create a dense visual atmosphere. The opening scenes are flooded with a harsh white light and blanketed in thick shadows; Maksudov\u2019s brooding is set amid the haunting chiaroscuro of a German Expressionist film. Jakov Jakoulov\u2019s stirring, often purposefully discordant original music is interwoven with the sound effects generated by the hands and mouths of the actors. The result is a disquieting symphony that conveys Maksudov\u2019s creative torment.<\/p>\n

Those who don\u2019t speak Russian, like this critic, will have to rely on a live audio translation to understand the dialogue. At times, this audio feed is drowned out by the sound design, but that doesn\u2019t sully the creative richness and meaning of the piece. For instance, Simonov\u2019s props suggest a nonsense-logic; every paper object on stage, from contracts and scripts to the notes scattered around Maksudov\u2019s apartment, is black. It is as if they\u2019d been burned in a fit of rage by an anguished writer. The desk of the theatre company\u2019s strange, crablike secretary is covered with typewriters. But there\u2019s no paper in these machines, and the cords from her phones lead nowhere. One line hangs from the ceiling \u2014 perhaps a symbol of the disconnected sensibility of the theatre business. Even the creative flourishes that don\u2019t make much sense, such as the aforementioned secretary\u2019s frenetic dance number at the end of act one, are so captivating and fun to watch that it\u2019s easy to cast reason aside.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s unfortunate, then, that the originality of Dead Man\u2019s Diary<\/em> fades somewhat during act two. At this point, the play concentrates on lampooning theatrical personalities. The tone becomes much drier; the narrative still exhibits the dark wit that helped make the first act so compelling, but the exuberance of the lighting and sound design is cut back. The staging doesn\u2019t venture beyond conventional sensory territory. If this stylistic shift was a deliberate choice, it\u2019s hard to tell exactly what it was meant to achieve. The second act of this \u201ctheatrical novel\u201d feels like a different play entirely, more an absurd comedy of manners than a head-spinning study of the torments of a writer.<\/p>\n

By the final scenes of the play some of the staging brilliance that made act one so memorable return. This is a welcome transformation, only slightly soured by the fact that the play ends shortly afterward, bringing the odyssey of Maksudov to an abrupt halt. Yes, Dead Man\u2019s Diary<\/em> wasn\u2019t completed before Bulgakov\u2019s death, so the lack of dramatic closure is understandable. Still, given that the production is characterized by such boldness and imaginative panache, it would have been more satisfying for the Arlekin Players to take a risk and go for a gutsier finale. Nonetheless, though it doesn\u2019t quite sustain the emotional intensity and inventive showmanship that makes its first half so unforgettable, Dead Man\u2019s Diary: A Theatrical Novel<\/em> remains a gripping experience. New England theatre-goers seeking a strange new adventure should not let this one pass them by.<\/p>\n
