The theatre producer G.Erdenebaatar said, “In the past half-century, we have played over 50 performances on stage. As our theatre is the only one of its kind in Mongolia, we are planning to have performances and events that are specifically for the youth. We named this year’s opening performance as ‘Gala Opening’, going along with the international standards. The audience will be able to learn about what performances we have in our repertoire from the concert. Our performers will showcase their greatest of abilities even in the shortest amount of time.”
The theatre will be performing one of the most famous operas in the world, “Carmen” by G.Bizet on the 13th, and the great classic “Swan Lake” by P.I.Tchaikovsky on the 14th as a continuation of the opening season. During this period, a historic exhibition about the theatre performers of many generations and their performances is to take place.
