Description "Freely adapted by the artistic director of Russian Maly Theatre of St. Petersburg, from Sergei Kaledin's once banned novel Construction Battalion, Gaudeamus elegantly, magically and hauntingly transcends the indignities endured by the young Soviet military conscripts it depicts and the cruel hand that enslaves them in a repressive "united military family" and seals their fate."
