The renowned producer, People's Artist of Armenia and Artistic Director
of the Yerevan Russian Drama Alexander Grigoryan arrived in Chita,
Russia, almost a month ago. He plans to stage the play "Moon monster"
at the local drama.
The play has for years been a success both in Yerevan and at the
Moscow Academic Art Theatre after Anton Chekhov.
Yuliya Zolotuyeva had an interview with Alexander Grigoryan. The
interview is posted on chita.ru.
Below are excerpts from the article:
"Alexander Grigoryan always says he represents Russia in Armenia
and Armenia in Russia. Love for theater, literature, music, and,
which is most important, for people.
"On August 20 the renowned producer celebrated his 75th birthday
anniversary. In an empty hall, Alexander Grigoryan told me why he
liked Chit - about the spirit of the Chita Drama," the author writes.
"I like Chita. This city hosted my compatriots. When I got off the
plane, I was surprised. A company was welcoming me at the airport. But
I was surprised at the number of Armenians - there were about 30 of
them," says Grigoryan.
"I am happy that my compatriots feel comfortable here... A lot of
positive emotions!"
"Nikolay Berezin, a well-known Russian producer, gave me information
on the actors. I am so happy that the actors feel such an emotional
play - I would call it a tragedy - so well.
"This play has been on at the Moscow Academic Art Theatre for the
seventh year. Wonderful actors are playing. They got a 'Chaika', the
highest theater award. The play is also on at our Russian Drama. We
have got several Grands Prix - in Belarus, Russia and Armenia.
"The play is about mercy... An Armenian family cannot have a child,
and adopts one. Such a step, which may not be so popular in Russia and
Armenia now, must be held in high esteem and deserves great human love.
"I Yerevan I am going to prepare a program in cooperation with our
partners from Chita. Its name is 'Moon monster' in Chita'.
"We are proud of being sown such a favorable attitude. We are working
for both Armenia and Russia. We participate in festivals. Berezin
saw us at the festival in Odessa. He saw 'Moon monster' and said:
'You must come!'... I came to realize that I would do good not only
for our theater, but also for Russia and Armenia, my native country..."
