The most vivid impressions from visiting the F. Iskander Theater. The creative atmosphere permeated everything here. We were at two performances and both shocked to the core. Shepherd Mahaz is a story - portrait of a simple shepherd who had 7 daughters and no sons. The story shows the Abkhazian character very well, with its characteristic simplicity and tolerance. The second Shakespeare play is The Windsor Pranksters. One of the best productions! The incendiary play of the actors, gorgeous scenery, sound, light and everything in the play delighted... I highly recommend visiting this theater to anyone who plans to visit Sukhum!
A wonderful theater. The performances are all at the highest level. I buy tickets at the box office of the theater. You can pay with a card. You can choose a place for yourself, the cashier will always tell you. It's clean inside. Everything has been carefully repaired. I was also on the small stage. And the main one. The location is very convenient. The only thing is that productions based on the works of Abkhazian authors are not so common.
I recommend you to visit.
In the summer of 2022, during my vacation in Abkhazia, I managed to attend the play "Diary of an Adventurer" staged by this theater on its historical stage in Sukhum. I really liked the performance! Respect for the classics, preservation of meaning. laid down by A.N.Ostrovsky, the staged speech of the actors, the set design - all this left a very pleasant impression. And when the theater arrived in Moscow in April of this year, I managed to attend the play "Handsome Man". And I liked everything too.
Great theater and a great troupe! There are performances for every taste - both classics and modern drama. Genres are also widely represented, ranging from comedy to tragedy. Very strong productions due to excellent directors and decent acting. The productions based on Fazil Iskander, especially the play Sofichka, became a great discovery. Not a single passing performance during the entire visit! I recommend you to appreciate the magic of the performance and participation in what is happening on stage. Almost all performances cause an incredible emotional explosion. A young but very talented troupe!
A wonderful theater! A diverse repertoire. It is located near the waterfront. There are a large number of restaurants, shops and places for walking nearby. We came specially from Gagra, we did not regret it. The staff were very polite and helped to call a taxi back.
Лучше один раз, а ещё лучше- много, много раз сходить и посмотреть спектакли в этом замечательном театре!
Очень талантливые, красивые актёры, очень интересные, необычные постановки, разнообразный репертуар! Посмотрели 5 спектаклей, замечательно! Комфортные кресла, 2 зала.
Но, вот только в последний раз, молодая сотрудница ( ну уж ооочень исполнительная или глупая, или, наоборот, продуманная)))) испортила нам настроение. Это человек, для которого добро, хорошее отношение к людям, понимание существуют только на сцене в ролях героев, но только не для неё, не для её отношения к жизни, зря она так,но, как говорится- пусть это будет на её совести, если она( совесть)вообще есть)))))
I was a guest of the city and accidentally got to the play "The Visit of an old lady". I was pleasantly surprised. Some kind of magic happened. The amazing acting is so exciting that you already forget where you are, and you are completely captured by this whirlpool of feelings and thoughts!!! Very beautiful design, light, music, entertainment ... I had fun!!! Thank you 👏🏽
A wonderful theater. Professional acting by talented actors. Vivid emotions, the pleasure of watching performances! Every time we come to Sukhum, we definitely visit the theater. Unforgettable emotions!!!
30.08.2024 we watched the play "Sofichka" based on the story by Fazil Iskander.
The performance is deep, restrained, after it you want to be silent, hold the light of the Sofichka in your soul.
Everything is in Sophie's life: a warm childhood, happy love, personal tragedy, and the common grief of war. But there is no loneliness. She is part of a large family, part of the clan, part of the people. His soul is in it.
The performance is a complete narrative, from which it is impossible to break away. This is an expressive picture of life, multifaceted and endless.
Many thanks and great respect to the authors of the play for the fact that there are no meaningless embellishments, unnecessary modernization of the text.
The audience gave a standing ovation. All at once and for a long time!
They left the theater with a sense of admiration and respect for the actors, literature and the people of Abkhazia.
The Windsor Pranksters were at the performance on 07/04/2024. I liked it so much that I even decided to write a review. The acting, the costumes, the lights- everything was wonderful. Amazing theater!
In 2022, we went to the play Mom also really liked it.
Thanks
The level of the theater is great, the acting is great, the pitch is cool!
We've been to two Iskander productions (I think it makes sense to watch this one).
There are many subtle jokes and moments regarding the local culture, but all with love and tenderness for their people.
Moscow
We watched "The Last of the Departed". Very emotional! The actor's acting is amazing! There was a full house. I definitely recommend Rusdram Sukhum to visit. We didn't regret for a second that we went to the play. On our next visit to Abkhazia, we will definitely watch some more of the productions.
We visited the family in May 2024, we were with children 9 and 11 years old, of course, they did not understand all the jokes and dialogues / monologues, but in general we did not get bored, we even remembered the characters. There were Windsor Pranksters at the premiere. The theater itself is small, but everything you need is there, a wardrobe, a foyer, a cafe, a toilet (very small booths) and you need to pay attention to cleaning. The prices in the cafe are inexpensive (for tourists). I didn't like that the performance was delayed for 30 minutes without explanations and apologies, so it started late. I liked the performance myself, the beginning was long and not quite clear, but then the plot captured and watched in one breath.
Beautiful Rusdram! I watched the play "Sofichka", I was impressed by the actors' performance, by the production itself, it is such works that remain in my memory for a long time. Great, I recommend it to everyone! You just need to take a blanket, because the air conditioner works well🙂
Today (04/6.24) I was on tour of this wonderful theater in Moscow at the play "Handsome Man" by Ostrovsky. I went on the advice of my mother, who had already been to Sukhumi for other performances of this theater and was COMPLETELY DELIGHTED). I wanted to check if it was so good). Now I declare WITH FULL CONFIDENCE - SO!Although this is a sad enough comedy, the EMOTIONS remained the MOST POSITIVE! The MAGNIFICENT ACTORS are masters of their craft, they completely carried out the whole idea of the work and managed to keep interest and attention throughout the performance! And this is despite the minimal variety in the scenery and costumes and with a rather boring and understandable storyline of the whole play as a whole. In my opinion, it's a bit too much with the grotesque, but there's no arguing about tastes, as they say). It is definitely worth visiting the performances of this theater, both in Sukhum and in Moscow! Now I know what is worth visiting exactly when exploring Abkhazia). A MAGNIFICENT THEATER AND WONDERFUL ACTORS - COME TO MOSCOW MORE OFTEN AND CONTINUE TO DEVELOP, YOU ARE WONDERFUL!!!
06/9.24 The theater is on tour in the Altai Territory in Barnaul, and today the artists presented the play "Sofichka".Thank you for such a wonderful production!It is very touching, tragic and heartfelt!
We visited this theater during our vacation. The performance was based on Shakespeare's play, with an indescribable Caucasian flavor. I really liked it!!! If we manage to come to Abkhazia again, we will definitely try to go to the theater
The theater gives amazing emotions every time! The delight of the productions! The performance of the artists, the light, the sound, the scenery - so atmospheric, very fascinating.
Today we visited the Russian Drama Theater, where we went on the recommendation of friends. A very talented team, the performance of the Glass Menagerie made a strong impression. Thank you very much, good luck and creative discoveries!
Delight. We were at the performance on December 31, and it was our best New Year's idea) Wonderful actors, friendly atmosphere (it feels like there are a lot of regulars), friendly staff. Very comfortable chairs in the hall - thanks a lot to the person who designed them!
Everything is perfectly visible and audible.
It so happened that we had a rest in Sukhumi for all the May holidays, we decided to go to the play "Scarlet Sails". I really liked it - an amazing production, the actors did their best🌷
Amazing theater! The actors play for real, the direction is brilliant, and there are ovations after each performance. During the week of rest, I went as much as 2 times. I'm thrilled!
My son and I were at the F.Iskander Rusdram in Sukhum at the premiere of "Eugene Onegin". A very interesting variation of the classic. A lot of light and little scenery. Actually, only curtains in the background and a bench. Props – Lensky's guitar, pillow, clay jug and pistols. Integrated into spect and shadow theater. A couple of times very successfully. In general, the atmosphere is transmitted.
Evgeny, aka Emil Petrov, is very good. Especially good when in love with Tatiana. Onegin is so fatally dragging and going crazy. Tatiana herself (Loida Tyrkba) is also good in the final. But not too much as a girl. In general, Larina's purely Abkhazian sisters are very unusual))))
The theater starts with a hanger, that's exactly about this theater. Delight!!!! We were on the "Sofichka", it is impossible to describe the whole range of feelings. Great game!!!!! A lot of emotions!!!!! Many thanks to all the staff and the geeky actors!!!! Prosperity!!!!!
I conquered this theater from the first meeting! We watched the Oscar production in 2023. It was a delight! I only laughed so much when I was a kid! This year there were Prima Donnas at the play. We specially chose comedies, because we didn't want to think about anything serious on vacation)
Briefly about the main thing for those born in the USSR and those who remember the years of rule of a few leaders:
"A young but very talented troupe!"
Briefly about the main thing for prominent political figures on the planets Earth and Mars:
"There are a lot of subtle jokes and moments regarding the local culture, but all with love and tenderness for their people."..
A magnificent theater.yu!
Something worth returning to Sukhumi for!!! In a month, my daughter and I attended 12 performances last year.
They are all different, touching, funny, I will make you think and feel!
A very talented troupe and directors!An amazing repertoire.
Bravo!
I really liked the theater. We went to the premiere of the Oscar play. Excellent production, the actors played incomparably. The cast is very fresh, young, charismatic, each character has sunk into the soul. I will be happy to come to this theater again.
This year we visited the theater in Abkhazia for the first time and were delighted with the actors' performance. After the first visit, we bought more tickets for the second performance. We recommend everyone to visit!
The theater is amazing, today I accidentally got to the one-man show "the last of the departed" the performance is very strong, after a couple of minutes you forget that one actor is playing, how much he transforms into different characters. The theme of the play is the history of the disappeared people. I highly recommend it, it's a pity that there is no opportunity to watch the entire repertoire, I hope they will come on tour to us in St. Petersburg.
Besides the great acting, it was nice to see the ladies in evening dresses! Beautiful faces, figures, hair, jewelry. All this created a sense of celebration.
I recommend it to everyone. For 2 years now , the impression has only been delight . High- level theater and actors . You are the best. Good luck to you creatively.
05/24/24 we were at the play "Shepherd Mahaz". This is amazing! It's been a long time since my husband and I have enjoyed the performance so much! What good fellows the actors and the director of the play are! And we cried and laughed, bravo! The next time we visit Sukhum, we will definitely come again! Thank you very much!
We visit on every visit. A lot of premieres. Wonderful actors. Great costumes. The hall is beautiful, with comfortable chairs. The sound is clearly audible, I don't know how at the end of the hall, we always take the stalls. We watched "Handsome Man" based on the work of A. Ostrovsky in modern directing. In general, I liked it.
Good afternoon. This year we were at the theater for the first time. I really liked the performance. "Shepherd Mahaz" the acting is great. I was crying and laughing. Bravo!!!
A wonderful performance was watched by F. Iskander "Sofichka". There were no indifferent people, the audience did not breathe, then cried. We went with our daughter for 12 years, we also cried. We managed to show the child the magic of the theater. Elegant people, a beautiful hall, a magnificent production, music, the actors' performance is incredible, the reaction of the audience, flowers to the actors.
I highly recommend it.
When I'm on vacation in Sukhum, I always go to this theater. Amazing acting: if it's a comedy, we laugh non-stop; if it's a drama, goosebumps and a lump in the throat from overwhelming emotions!!! Gorgeous! I advise everyone to visit this theater
My favorite theater! Professionals! We come to Sukhum specifically to visit this theater . Bravo to the actors! Always a delight! Keep it up ! You are on top! On February 23 , we watched Solaris . The director is a genius! So much imagination and all this is embodied on stage! We will definitely visit you again! Thanks !
Great theater. High quality performances. A young, talented troupe. Experienced actors are also of high class. Regular premieres. The repertoire is updated monthly. Directing is on top. I advise everyone.
Good theater. Wonderful acting. Performances every day. Many thanks for the work of everyone involved in this theater. I recommend it!
Dressing up is not particularly worth it. The atmosphere is democratic)
Во время отпуска посетили всей семьёй спектакль "Клинический случай". Все насладились замечательной игрой актеров и посмеялись от души. Благодарим весь актерский состав за прекрасную работу! Удобно, что билеты можно купить онлайн. Сам театр небольшой. В зрительном зале прекрасно видно с любых мест. Единственный нюанс, который отметили наши друзья, что на самом последнем ряду очень дует от кондиционера - это стоит учесть при покупке билета летом. В остальном всё прекрасно. По окончании спектакля удалось поговорить с работниками театра и узнать об остальных спектаклях, чтобы наметить посещение. При посещении Сухума - рекомендую к посещению для разнообразия досуга, расширения кругозора да и просто прекрасного времяпровождения.
