The Theatre of Ob-Ugrian Peoples Sun has shown
the premiere of the performance Legend of Dushianta ans Sakuntala
The Theatre of Ob-Ugrian Peoples Sun has shown the long-waited premiere of the performance Legend of Dushianta ans Sakuntala which is based on drama by Kalidas Shakuntala and Old Indian epic Mahabharata.

The Art Manager and Director of the theatre Olga Aleksandrova, Stage Directors Anna-Ksenia Vishnevskaya and Timur Salihov, Stage Choreographer Yekaterina Dobrovskaya took part in the press-conference.
On 15 June at 19-00 there was held the premiere show of the performance Legend of Dushianta and Sakuntala in the exhibition hall of Peoples’ Friendship House.
There was presented a philosophic story of great love of a young Indian king Dushianta and a young pure-hearted hermit Sakuntala, a story like the legends of Tristan and Izolde, Romeo and Juliette.
Dramatic art, ethnical dance and singing are naturally interlaced in the performance. Due to Khanty and Mansi language scientists being brought into the work at the show Khanty and Mansi folklore is be organically interwoven with Old Indian epic.
This show is consistent for the theatre because the relationship between Ob Ugrians and Indian has historical roots. Plunging into culture of these peoples we can find quite a number of parallels between them.
The performance “Legend of Dushianta and Sakuntala” became a bright cultural event in the sphere of theatre art of Ugra. Here are some opinions of spectators: ‘It is very beautiful and wonderful! Well done!’; ‘Thanks, I have no words to say, but only emotions. It is the first such performance. Bravo!’; ‘It is a very brave project. It’s a take-off. I can’t believe that the performance has produced for a long time. On the base of traditional culture and northern land an old legend of hot country has been born, revived or materialized to be precise.’; ‘It’s an event in the cultural life of not only Okrug but all our country!!! It’s beyond any praise! You are the best!’
