THE ANCHORLESS
Автор: Karim Tinchurin
The premiere took place on October 8, 2016
Karim Tinchurin (1887-1938) wrote “The Anchorless” in 1926 and the play became the most significant drama ever written in Tatar language. This pearl of Tatar classics is a satiric comedy originally, but today the play sounds more like a tradegy. The plot is about the choice of Tatar nation's way of development at the Revolution and right after it. The nation was oppressed for many centuries; it has gained the freedom and could not remain united. Those who were considered at the forefront, the enlightened merchants, officers, politics and philosophers, they went into the wilderness. And we still reap the benefit of it till now.
