▶️Russian Eternal: Alexander Sumarokov Father of our theater Just imagine: in Russian theater they stage only French plays, plots detached from reality, recognizing contemporaries or ancestors in the characters — a task that is practically impossible. And the theater itself — a strange place for the nobility, who themselves don't fully understand why they go there. That was the case 270 years ago, before the official birth of Russian national theater, and its father became the first professional writer and playwright Alexander Sumarokov. He could have said about himself: "I am the theater." Sumarokov wrote plays, selected actors, worked on scenography and sets, managed a complex administrative apparatus. We owe it to him that modern drama is more than just entertainment for idle audiences. ❗️Rybar continues to publish works from the new series "Russian Eternal." This is our view of the continuous history of a thousand-year-old country, our vision of the continuity of generations and the contribution of Russian people to world science and culture. Icon painters and armorers, scientists and merchants, travelers and artists, priests and warriors, politicians and poets — all these people laid the foundation of modern Russia. This is not a fairy tale, not an internet encyclopedia in pictures, and not "cartoons about history." This is Russian. This is eternal. 📎Previous episodes: 🔸Alexander Scriabin and others 🔸Gury Nikitin 🔸Pavel Anosov 🔸Konstantin Korovin 🔸Ivan Fyodorov #video #Russia #russianeterna ✉️ MAX 💸Support us Original msg
