The Government Inspector

Before you are three brilliant comedies in which Nikolai Vasilievich Gogol (1809–1852) with biting humor exposes the weaknesses of society.
It is believed that the plot of the play "The Government Inspector" was suggested to the writer by A. S. Pushkin.... An unknown man appears in a backwater town, whom the local officials take for a fearsome inspector from Petersburg. Panic is instant: bribes are hidden, the streets are swept, faces smile until it hurts the cheeks. But the "inspector" turns out to be an ordinary swindler – Khlestakov, who is delighted to enjoy unexpected power and attention. 
"Marriage" – an ironic story about the fear of marriage. The official Podkolesin wavers between the dream of family comfort and the fear of losing freedom. A matchmaker, friends, and a bride – all seem to push him toward the decisive step. But will it be taken? "
In "The Gamblers" everything revolves around deception, gambling, and psychological games. The card sharp Ikharev, wishing to get rich, finds himself caught in a trap of provincial swindlers.
