For the first time in the history of our theater, we took part in the "Big Tour" project, organized by the Federal State Budgetary Institution "Rosconcert" in accordance with the All-Russian Tour and Concert Plan of the Ministry of Culture of Russia, Tamerlane Dzudtsov, the artistic director of the State Drama Theater of South Ossetia, told the South Ossetian journalists at the briefing at the Committee for Information and Press of the Republic on Monday.
. "This program is being implemented in order for Russian theaters to tour each other more often. We started our tour from Yaroslavl, where the festival of Russian foreign theaters was held, in which we took part," said Dzudtsov.
According to the artistic director said, at the festival in Yaroslavl, they presented the play "Kosta", after which they went to Lipetsk and showed 2 performances there.
“In Lipetsk we showed the play Antigone and Kosta. We had planned a show in Voronezh, but due to the deterioration of the sanitary and epidemiological situation, we postponed the show until the next year,” explained Tamerlan Dzudtsov.
According to him, the play "Kosta" aroused particular interest.
“After participating in the festival of Russian foreign theaters in Yaroslavl, where we presented the play “Kosta”, the audience wrote on social networks: “We have discovered Kosta Khetagurov, we have found out who he was.” We decided that we will definitely show this performance during all our tours in Russia in order to continue to promote the culture of the Ossetian people,” said the artistic director of the theater.
Dzudtsov has added that the best performances of the South Ossetian State Drama Theater were shown on the "Big Tour".
