The first city festival “Theatre and Existence” is aimed to support the development and propaganda of the creative abilities, to attract the attention to the theater art among the young people. In this event 6 public and student’s town teachers took part. There are our representatives among the winners – Piligrim won the 3 place, but “Shanyrak” got the main award, which performed the show “Tor” for the audience and judges. The director of the performance is Kazhybai Aytbaev calls it the “advantageous” one, the main reason for it is the topical theme – the drug addiction (the problem of not only the youth, but also the humanity one). “Why is the exactly “Tor”? It is translated as “Net”. We meant the spider’s net. The victim that has got in the net it does not die immediately; it gets dry not having a chance to get out. The same fate is for our hero Hasen, who came to the town from the countryside to continue his education. But new acquaintances and his strong desire to have the unusual feelings… that are exactly the ways the drugs appeared in his life. He as he had got in the net that was the action of his getting apart of the human life and finally he killed himself. The drugs made his life so agonizing and short.”- said Kazhybai Aytbaev.

The performance about the youth was created and embodied by themselves. And it looks like the aim is achieved. Spiritually strong teenagers, who have their own aim in life, smart, talented were presented in performance… as the guys who spend their free time in the rehearsal.
