Galina Ketova. What is theater?

«What is theater? Oh, this is a true temple of art!», wrote Vissarion Belinsky.

People first learned about the theater in 2500 BC: the first theatrical production dedicated to the life of the god Osiris was staged in Egypt. However, Greece is considered the founder of modern theater. It was here that the division of productions into comedy and tragedy occurred. Therefore, the symbol of the theater is two masks.
Galina Ketova, Honored Artist of the Kyrgyz Republic and Director of the Youth Center for Culture and Creativity KRSU, told us what theater is.
