Fleeing from the conventional, the musical is mounted inside a space located at the top of the Santander Theater, the 033 Rooftop. The venue is adapted to feature special scenography to reassemble a Russian club from the early nineteenth century. Involved in this Moscow atmosphere, the audience will be able to enjoy the bar and experience a tasty gastronomic experience led by Chef Mario Azevedo, from the 033 Rooftop, with authentic Russian strogonoff.

In his Brazilian adaptation, the musical directed by Zé Henrique de Paula, has musical direction by Fernanda Maia, choreography by Gabriel Malo, set design by Bruno Anselmo, costumes by Zé Henrique de Paula, visage of Fabio Petri, lighting design by Fran Barros and sounds design by João Baracho.
