About the show
Missed the theater? Theater on Podil guarantees a good company. MEMOIRS OF A YOUNG DOCTOR is a play seen all over Ukraine during a large-scale tour supported by the World AIDS Foundation.

About the play:
Mykhailo Bulgakov graduated from Kyiv Medical University and began his practice at hospitals in Cherkasy and Kamianets-Podilskyi. The writer describes his further experience as a doctor in MEMOIRS OF A YOUNG DOCTOR. It is an autobiographical work full of humor, the truth of life and the bitterness of retribution. Our mistakes have consequences, our passions lead to drama. Our decisions change the world. We will not teach you how to live, but we will tell the story of one prominent morphinist, which for all of us remains a mystery with a tragic ending.
