The play is set in a typical Odesa courtyard on Primorskaya Street.
The neighbours go about their daily lives at a leisurely pace, until they suddenly learn about the proposed demolition of their communal house.
As always, the situation is saved by Love.
Once again, the performance features colourful Odesa humour, true Jewish wisdom, and fiery dances.

My wife and I attended the performance 'Odessa Sketches' and would like to thank the entire creative team: the authors and directors for the idea and staging, the cast – for their professional performance and dedication, the costume designer – for the well-thought-out looks, and the sound engineer and lighting designer – for their perfect accompaniment throughout the show.
It was very true to life, interesting and fun. Thank you for your work!

I went to the play with a friend. I just had a break from everything. It was really cool. This farce is simply hilarious)) I laughed my heart out. Thank you so much to everyone. Especially the male characters, forgive me ladies. I haven't enjoyed myself so much in a long time. Thank you very much. My review is the least I can do for you. You are professionals, you give us a breath of fresh air and it's better than any therapy.

Anna, thank you from the whole team.
Reviews are what inspire us! We look forward to seeing you again!

My friend and I decided to go to the comedy play “7:40” in Odesa — and it turned out to be a wonderful choice! Light and sparkling humour, unique Odesa flair and brilliant acting made the evening bright and unforgettable. The jokes were spot-on and relatable, and the atmosphere in the hall was warm and friendly. This performance brought a wave of positivity and good spirits, leaving the most pleasant impressions. A great way to spend time and have a good laugh!

We are very glad you enjoyed it! We look forward to seeing you at other productions!

Today I went to a fantastic show dedicated to Odessa — and I'm still smiling! Genuine Odessa humour, colourful characters, a wonderful atmosphere of a southern city with its dialect, jokes, and everyday wisdom. Every scene was like a joke brought to life, with brilliant acting.
The audience was laughing to tears, and it felt as though even the theatre walls were laughing along with us.
If you want to forget your troubles for an hour, hear soulful songs, and have a good laugh from the heart — you must go and see it! The play isn't just funny; it has real character, just like Odessa itself.

Thank you so much. Indeed, we are most grateful.

We went to this performance and really enjoyed the acting. They truly lived it, rather than just acting. We got a boost of energy for the week ahead. We had a really good laugh! Thank you! We always enjoy coming to all of your performances.
