The project was initiated by the Association of Restaurateurs and Hoteliers of Tatarstan and is dedicated to the history of the development of national cuisine.

“The Loved Ones”
Karim Tinchurin Tatar State Drama and Comedy Theatre Melodrama.
“The Loved Ones” is a real-life story based on a Tatar village in the 1950-70s, as recorded verbatim by Ilgiz Zainiev, the director, after his grandmother. The prototypes of the characters are also real people with their own personalities, destinies, and feelings.
The intertwining of fates, the clash of characters, love and hate – all of this is reflected in the new play. In addition, it also demonstrates the strength of the Tatar woman: her fortitude and resilience. Seeing this play, everyone can recognise the features of their loved ones who lived in the harsh post-war time, and who maybe are still alive today. Our life consists of global events, big scientific discoveries. However, the life of most people consists of small, domestic scenes: means to feed a child, ways to heat the stove, basic needs for safety. These concerns occupy 90% of our everyday existence, our daily routine. “The Loved Ones” is a play about how to spend these 90% of our life with no regrets.

The play by Islamiya Makhmutova, Honoured Artist of the RSFSR, People’s Artist of Tatarstan, is based on real events. Ainur’s first love saves his life. Alina cannot forget her feelings for him, either. But Fate keeps sending them new challenges. Alina and Ainur will meet again only after a long time, after enduring many losses. Is it worth destroying the happiness created with another for the sake of the first love, left in the distant past? Will Ainur, who is blind in two eyes, take the hand of his beloved to “jump into the abyss of life” together? The play is about the pure, bright love of two hearts, whose happiness was destroyed by war; about the dependence of human life on the sinister machine of the state, which inexorably and callously grinds people’s fates.

“Faded Stars”
Karim Tinchurin Tatar State Drama and Comedy TheatreMusical tragedy

Daily life, traditions and customs, songs and dances of the Tatar village of the early 20th century have become a distant past for us, the inhabitants of the 21st century metropolis. Yesterday’s norms have become today’s extravagance. Despite that, the history of bygone days remains relevant still, reflecting the very soul of the entire Tatar people…
The year is 1914. Time and the events of history ruin human lives, and inevitability and evil fate loom over everything. The destinies of simple peasants have already been predetermined. And only pure hearts that wait for happiness and continue to love strongly, sincerely, and deeply can defeat even the Death itself…

for a fee/ admission via Forum AccreditationMusical comedy

Gulia and Roman, who have not yet learnt true love, burst into the measured life of the village of Yagodnaya Polyana, where only two houses still stand. Youthful passion, foolishness, ridiculous offences between the young stir the soul of old Fail. And so, he “writes” a new script to save the love that was hanging by a thread. The events that take place remind each character of forgotten feelings, mistakes of youth, and betrayals. But most importantly, they call up upon them to respect and love each other. The play is accompanied by songs, dances, jokes, and quips inherent to the Tatar people, all the while reminding the audience of the important Tatar rituals and history, which today got thrown to the wind. Except that love cannot be rid of that easily. Love should be experienced today, no reasons needed: forget all complications, just feel from the bottom of the heart.

The comedy about the officials of a district town, who took a young penniless hustler as a Government Inspector, still sounds like a modern story about the inevitable need for a man to answer for what he has done, a conversation about the soul, about the country, about life.

“One Step Closer to a Dream”
Karim Tinchurin Tatar State Drama and Comedy TheatreFantasy

The quote “May the lights lit by us never go out...” by Karim Tinchurin became the leitmotif of the whole play “One Step Closer to a Dream”, which takes place in 1921. A Tatar theatre troupe, led by Karim Tinchurin, arrive in Orenburg after graduating from theatre courses in Samara. However, their dreams and plans for establishing the Tatar theatre may collapse: famine strikes the Volga region and typhus begins to spread. To save the actors and the future of the Tatar theatre, the director decides to go with the troupe to Tashkent. On the way there, Karim Tinchurin writes a play called “One Step Closer to a Dream” and stages it right in their train car. The director’s goal is to distract the actors from the hard road, hunger, and illness, and not to let them lose heart. “Dreams drive people. The stage inspires an actor... I can save the troupe only with a new production, I can keep them engaged only through rehearsals,” says Karim Tinchurin to Zagida, his wife. In this way the director is trying to save not only the spirit and bodies of the actors, but also the Tatar theatre that is just beginning to take shape. Based on real events.

Written in 1928 but never staged during the author’s lifetime, the play “Flight” still remains a reflection on the people, their choices dictated by time, the fate of the country and the love for the humankind, for the origins, for the motherland.

“Ashina”
Karim Tinchurin Tatar State Drama and Comedy TheatreMystical drama

According to Turkic legends, Ashina is a she-wolf, the saviour of the clan. The play “Ashina” is dedicated to the history of land flooding during the construction of the hydroelectric power station. The events in the play take place in the 1950s on a small island of the Kama River. The relations between the characters of the play are quite complicated. Love and nobility of some oppose the corruption and envy of others. Which of them will prevail?
A person is not born with an inherent moral code; everyone, akin to a sculpter, moulds themselves in the course of their lives, gaining freedom in decision-making process. Moral choice, according to existentialists, depends solely on the person themselves, and that person alone is responsible for it. For many, this dilemma proves to be a test on the edge of human capabilities.
This is a true director’s play. It is metaphorical, plastic, mystical, and at the same time, acutely relevant. The lives of the drama’s characters are closely intertwined with the legend of the she-wolf.

“Ibn Fadlan” documentary and feature film
New Building of Galiasgar Kamal Tatar State Academic Theatre (Cinema Hall) or “Mir” Movie Theatre
2022
Director: Ainaz Mukhametzyanov
In 921, an embassy on a religious mission, headed by Ibn Fadlan, ventured from Baghdad to the land of Bulgars. The film depicts Fadlan’s observations on the route of the embassy, which passed through different countries, peoples and cultures. Its journey, which lasted almost a year, was full of hardships, obstacles, and dangers. It is with the embassy’s arrival in 922 that the Volga Bulgaria accepted Islam as official religion.
