Performers who put themselves on stage before others are, I think, a unique bunch. Some might be inclined to argue that such people are attention seekers, but many of those on stage in some way or another often admit to being nervous when performing. The show topping song in this musical tries to explain the emotions of a performer. And yes, this performer herein wears a mask even while 'explaining' themself in a way.
There's also a love angle, triangle, herein (but one edge of the triangle is lifeless). The other side is interesting for the fact that the woman seems more in love with the masked singer who she only met once than the man she dines with for 20 something nights --- despite these men sharing something in common. It illustrates the power of mystery and how one's imagination can be stronger perhaps than one's feelings.
I enjoyed this Russian musical and I think it is the sort that is re-watchable --- which, I think, is the mark of an interesting movie or film.
