The Yerevan Chamber Theatre represented a new performance staged on
"Beetle" play by Ara Artsruni, honored artist of RA.
The play was staged by Armen Mehrabian and included the best actors of
the theatre. "Artsruni is an Armenian author from Beirut. I don't know
where he lives now. He used to be in France. I don't think he knows
that we staged his play. I wish he learnt about that and came,"
A. Mehrabian said.
The play is written for the theatre of absurd. But the critics said
that the author made everything to make it acceptable for the local
spectators. "The play is about all of us. One day we can be kings
while on the other day we can be as tiny as a beetle is," A. Mehrabian
said. He also thanked RA Culture and Youth Affairs Ministry for their
assistance in staging the play.
Norayr Adalian, writer, playwright, stated that Mehrabian made quite
an interesting work as a director. "He is one of the best directors of
our days. I believe that he would make a great contribution to the
development of the Armenian theatre if he had a theatre of his own,"
N. Adalian said.
