Digital show and music hits of different years: Days of Moscow will be held at the RUSSIA EXPO
Visitors can go on a virtual journey through different epochs starting from the founding of the city. Artists will perform poetic and musical numbers dedicated to Moscow.
The International RUSSIA EXPO, dedicated to the country's major achievements in science, culture, industry, energy, transportation and construction, opened at VDNH. For several months each region will present its successes in various spheres. The Days of Moscow will be held first - on November 4 and 5.
The central exposition of pavilion No. 75 tells about the past, present and future of the capital. Among the covered areas and topics are comfortable urban environment, innovative development and entrepreneurship, youth policy and education, transport framework, smart city, industry, digitalization and others.
The central part of the program dedicated to the capital is a digital show and the theatrical performance "Windows of Moscow". They are complemented by a dance master class, a fashion show and musicians' performances.
During the digital show the guests of the RUSSIA EXPO can go on a journey through different epochs. They will be shown how significant historical events took place, how the living conditions of Moscow residents changed, how education and culture advanced. The starting point of the journey is 1147, the date of Moscow's birth as a city. The most important stages of the capital's history gradually unfold before the audience: from the construction of the white-stone Kremlin and the creation of the first printed book to the emergence of technology parks and the introduction of artificial intelligence technologies in medicine.
"Windows of Moscow" is a musical and poetic performance with the recital of poems and letters-memories reflecting the atmosphere of the city. Monologues and dialogues of characters are woven into the plot - a walk through the capital - and alternate with musical numbers. The audience will hear the songs "Moscow Windows", "Alexandra", "I'm Walking in Moscow", "The Best City on Earth", "39th Tram" and other hits of different times.
Each visitor will get help in planning their ideal trip to Russia. In the interactive part of the exposition, the RUSSPASS service's recommendation system will analyze the answers to simple questions and suggest the best route for the trip. It will be available in printed form on a souvenir postcard.
The RUSSIA EXPO will last until April 12, 2024. It can be visited free of charge.
