The National Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet after Alexander
Spendiaryan had three premieres in 2011 - Alexander Harutyunyan's
"Sayat Nova" opera, Prokofyev's "Romeo and Juliet" and the
"Shopeniania" ballets, Director of the theatre Kamo Hovhannisyan told
a press conference today, summing up the results of the passing year.
In 2012 the National Academic Theatre of Opera and Ballet intends
to stage Puccini's opera "La Boheme," Adan's "Giselle" ballet and
Tchaykovsky's "Shchelkunchik."
As for the problems, the troupe refused from tours because of the
crisis. They hope to make up the leeway in 2012. The theatre survived
in 2011 only thanks to budget means, failing to conquer the hearts
of sponsors.
Despite all this, only two of the members of the troupe accepted a
proposal to work abroad, the Director said.
"Notwithstanding the difficulties, we are doing our work hoping
for a better future," Kamo Hovhannisyan said. The illumination and
sound system of the theatre will be completely changed in 2012, $8
million has been allocated from the state budget for this purpose,
the Director informed.
