Bla Bla Show Kicks Off at "Original".

On April 25, cultural space "Original" hosts the first gathering of new project Bla Bla Show. It's a dating theater, created by Alexey Olkhov, already known for projects Yauza, Blanc, Radio, and DK "Kristall." The event promises to combine play with live conversation, helping participants meet new people, make friends, or maybe even find love.

Theater team "Impresario," led by Fyodor Elyutin, is behind organizing the format. They've developed the party's script, which unfolds in two acts. The game is designed so every guest can talk comfortably, with no awkwardness or pressure. Along the way, participants can relax and be themselves, opening up to new connections.

The event's first act is devoted to private one-on-one conversation. Every pair gets a chance to talk in a relaxed setting, guided by cards with questions that prompt different topics — from hobbies to professional interests. This stage helps people connect faster and feel like part of the evening.

In the second act, the format shifts: guests now gather into mini-groups of four. This approach gives them a chance to discuss topics in smaller company, feel the dynamics of group conversation, and see their conversation partners in a new situation. The organizing team again supplies discussion questions, helping keep the conversation light and interesting.

Over the course of the evening, every participant gets to talk with more than ten different people. That gives everyone a real chance to meet someone who turns out to be a true kindred spirit. The format is built so no one feels overwhelmed — every conversation unfolds easily and with interest.

After the event ends, every participant receives a link to a database of profiles for all the evening's guests. The database lists first name, last name, age, a photo, and a link to social media. That lets you stay in touch with conversation partners you liked and keep talking outside the game format.

To make the evening as comfortable and effective as possible, the moderator forms groups of men and women based on profiles filled out in advance. The profiles account for participants' interests, hobbies, and preferences, so they can be matched with suitable company. After an application is submitted, the team carefully processes the data and forms optimal pairs and groups.

As of now, only applications from men are being accepted for the upcoming April 25 event. The women's spots are already filled, which speaks to the strong interest in the project. So for men, this is a great opportunity to join a format that combines elements of theater and dating into an unusual, lively form of conversation.
