Story
Actor Mikhail Lisichkin in the theater is dismissed, which inflicts a deep insult. He decides at all costs to push his daughter Verochka off the stage and successfully marry her to the twice widowed and retired hussar ensign Akaky Ushits. Verochka’s plans do not include the prospect of becoming a retired ensign, because she dreams of a career as a theater actress and the continuation of the Lisichkin’s creative dynasty. Verochka persuades the maid Katya how to fool a retired military man.
First, the main character disguises herself as a gypsy, and then - as the boy-messenger Filimon. Changing images, she convinces the ensign to abandon plans to marry himself. And now he likes Katya much more. It takes many years. Former famous actress Vera Lisichkina convinces her daughter Catherine that theatrical career is not the best future for the girl. The circle is closed.
