YEREVAN, JULY 30, NOYAN TAPAN – ARMENIANS TODAY. The tours of Tbilisi’s
Petros Adamian State Armenian Dramatic Theater in Yerevan will end
on July 31. This time the actors of this theater performed Ashkharums
Imn Dun Is work by the motives of Sayat-Nova’s works, G. Sundukian’s
Khatabala, H. Paronian’s Paghtasar Akhpar, G. Khanjian’s The Guards
of the Ruins and R. Kuni’s Escape from Your Wife performances.

"We are happy to have birthplace Georgia and homeland Armenia," art
director of the theater Armen Bayandurian stated at a conference on
July 29. He noted that Armenian and Georgian Ministries of Culture
cooperated in organizing the tours, and RA Ministry of Diaspora also
assisted them. According to A. Bayandurian, a new stage has begun in
the life of the 153 years old theater, a new generation has come to
the theater, who also brought a young spectator with them.

Touching upon the problems of the theater, the art director noted
that it would be very good if the actors of the theatre were awarded
honorary titles of the Republic of Armenia, as currently Georgia does
not have those titles and the Armenian theater of Tbilisi serves for
the preservation of Armenian literature and language. By the way,
under USSR many famous actors of Tbilisi’s Armenian Theater were
awarded the title of RA People’s or Merited Artist.

Director of the theater Felix Khachatrian touched upon another problem.

According to him, today the building of the theater is in bad
conditions and needs to be repaired.

Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
