CONGRATULATORY MESSAGE OF RA NATIONAL ASSEMBLY SPEAKER HOVIK ABRAHAMYAN ON THE INTERNATIONAL DAY OF THEATRE
National Assembly
March 29 2010
Armenia
RA NA Speaker Mr Hovik Abrahamyan sent congratulatory message on
International Day of Theatre, where it says:
"Centuries ago during the reign of the King Artavazd the capital
Artashat became the founding place of the Armenian theatre. And today,
it has been more than 10 years of Artavazd theatrical award-giving
ceremony, during which in different nominations awards are given for
the services rendered to the theatrical art.
The theatrical life in Armenia continued irrespective of ups and downs
of public life. Otherwise our theatrical life and culture should not
survive in the conditions, which during certain periods were not rather
favorable. The thing that today in Armenia different international
festivals are held speaks about our cultural attractiveness and our
viability of our creative gene.
Today lively events take place in our theatrical life: beginning from
the repertoire of the performances up to the life in the theatre.
Before we had wonderful provincial theatres, which, by the way, today
need support. The population of the provinces should more actively
take part in the theatrical, in general, cultural life.
On the occasion of the International Day of Theatre I congratulate
all the figures of the theatre world, including also those, whose
work we see, but they don't appear on the stage. I wish them cultural
limitless zeal and longevity, solidarity and welfare."
