In this article, we discuss the exhibition experience of the State Pushkin Museum related to Pushkin's tragedy «Boris Godunov». We present a project of the exhibition themed on the tragedy «Boris Godunov» in the premises of the 17th-century palace that belongs to the Pushkin State Museum. The proposed thematic structure of the exhibition and its possible artwork include phonograms of Pushkin’s texts, bell chimes, church hymns, and videos. An emphasis is made on Pushkin’s thoughts that are relevant today about the historical path of Russia, about the people and the government, about the moral assessment of historical events and historical figures. Some specific features of the museum theater-exposition are examined. We show how it relates to the conventionality and reality and consider the function of original items of the epoch and of the sound of the author’s words.
