UrBC, Yekaterinburg, March 4, 2016. D.N. Mamin-Sibiryak Nizhniy Tagil Drama Theater is now working on the production of We, the Undersigned, a play by Alexander Gelman, and getting ready for the Bulat Okudzhava Theater Festival. Both events, scheduled for April 22-24, 2016, are meant to celebrate Ural Vagon Zavod Corporation’s 80th anniversary.

According to the company press service, the first night of We, the Undersigned is expected to become the three-day festival’s key feature. These are not only the Nizhniy Tagil Drama Theater actors who are starring in the play but also the nationally renowned Anna Bolshova, Anatoly Kot, and Andrei Kuzichev, who will both give two performances on the renovated theater’s stage and will present their interpretations of Bulat Okudzhava’s songs and poetry at the concert at I.V. Okunev Palace of Culture. Incidentally, Ural Vagon Zavod and the city of Nizhniy Tagil played a great part in the life of the bard and poet’s family.

The festival’s primary audience are the plant’s engineers, designers, heads of production departments, and skilled workers, in a word, all those who cannot always find the time in their busy professional lives to go to a theater with their families. Naturally, the plant’s long-service and retired employees are definitely going to see We, the Undersigned as well.
