With great success in the Saratov drama, a thesis was shown for students of the theater institute - the comedy "Dog in the Hay"

SARATOV. Students of the Theater Institute, enrolled in the course of Professor Alexander Galko, People’s Artist of the Russian Federation, on February 26 presented the audience their diploma work. The play for the diploma was chosen unmistakably - comedies always attract the attention of theater-goers, even if its plot is known to the smallest detail.

The thesis “The Dog in the Hay”, written five centuries ago by the remarkable Spanish poet and playwright Lope de Vega, became the thesis. Researchers of his work estimated that he wrote about two thousand plays. Today, 426 of his dramatic works are known.

The Dog in the Hay, written by a playwright at the beginning of the 17th century, was repeatedly reprinted under various names, but the title was born from the contents of a famous proverb. In Russia, “Dog in the Hay” was first transferred in 1843.

Translator N. Pyatnitsky created a prosaic version of the comedy. Later, other writers addressed this play. The most popular was the translation of Mikhail Lozinsky, which students chose to create their diploma performance.

The love story embodied by young artists on the stage of the Saratov drama was received with enthusiasm by the audience. The images of various characters of sparkling comedy were talentedly created by actors. All the characters in the play were very emotional in expressing their feelings, especially sharp were the sharp dialogues of the main characters - Diana and Theodoro. These roles were presented to the audience by Elvira Irtuganova and Nikita Matrizaev

The course leader, Alexander Galko, set the thesis for his students. The play was designed by artist Yuri Namestnikov, who created magnificent costumes and scenery in the Spanish style.
