The Bathhouse Play by Vladimir Mayakovsky (Farsi)

Açıklama

The Bathhouse is a satirical play by Vladimir Mayakovsky that portrays absurd and comical situations in which its characters become trapped, exposing the inefficiency and hypocrisy of bureaucratic systems. Written as a bold dramatic critique of red tape and social stagnation, the play reflects Mayakovsky’s deep respect for his era while simultaneously challenging its flaws. Through exaggerated humor and sharp political commentary, he attacks petty bourgeois attitudes, false party loyalty, corruption, and opportunism. Although the future society imagined in the play appears somewhat idealized and abstract, it reveals the author’s hope for progress and renewal. The Bathhouse remains one of Mayakovsky’s most provocative dramatic works and continues to be staged, including a notable 2017 production at the Alexandrinsky Theatre in St. Petersburg.
