Moscow Drama Theater headed by renowned Russian-Armenian actor Armen
Jigharkhanyan will celebrate its 10th anniversary in Yerevan. The
theater will stage the performance "A liar is needed" tomorrow evening
upon the invitation of the Armenian president.

In the words of Jigarkhanyan, 45 years ago he played exactly in the
same play in Russian Drama Theater after Stanislavski.

Jigarkhanyan has not been playing for several years giving way to
young actors. The attempts of the Armenian reporters to know if he
will come back to stage did not give results.

Laureat of state awards of the Armenian SSR, people’s artist of the
Soviet Union Armen Jigarkhanyan has played in more than 200 fiction
films and has been included in the book of world records. The
70 years old artist says about himself, "I am the most ordinary
clown."
