Last representative of the Armenian classic theater, Khoren Abrahamian
has passed away. The brief description of his of his acting history
would be accurate play, perfect match to scenic psychology and role.

It was a school that the actor had inherited from his teacher,
Armen Gulakian. A school that needed continuation, but found no
organizer. Today we can only learn the school by studying Khoren
Abrahamian’s play records.

Some ten days before his death, Abrahamian said in an interview
that he needed a studio, where he would train over ten gifted young
people. Who was he applying to? Neither he knew, nor do we.

Recently, the press commented on the fact that Abrahamian’s last
service at the opera house was followed by a concert show. We believe
artificial funerals should be ended and Armenian sons and daughters
should be laid in the Grigor Lusavorich church, where people can come
and pass last respects.
