The premiere of the show "Once Upon a Time in Russia" took place on September 28, 2014. It was created by the producer Vyacheslav Dusmukhametov. The show is a collection of satirical sketches on acute social and topical issues. Among the characters, there are completely different types: officials, doctors, police officers, bank employees, managers, singers, actors, etc. At the same time, all the characters are collective and deliberately created in such a way as to avoid comparison with real famous personalities. Each scene starts with the word "Once...". The main goal of the show is not to offend a specific person, but to draw the audience's attention to the surrounding reality.
