Quiz dedicated to the year of the Theater

Theater

“The audience applauds, murmurs, whistles, He is both a fan and a judge. An actor on stage is a prince and a pauper, Where is someone else’s life, where is your own? Everything in this marvelous backstage miraculously intertwined: What was distant became close, What was dreamed about came true.

... And again Cleopatra is beautiful, Once again Berendey gives a fairy tale - The magic of the theater is immortal, And bravo, bravo, actor!

The lines of the poetess G. Bestuzheva well convey the mysterious, enigmatic and wonderful atmosphere of the theater and our emotions that arise when we mention this type of art. Theater is a mirror reflection of life, it is life itself with its different life cycles. Theater is the history of the country, the history of filling the spiritual shell of the development of world culture... This is the birth of thought and its stage embodiment, it is the character of a person, his development, formation... Having visited the theater, you seem to rise to a new, higher energy level and some that time you are on it, assessing yourself, the world around you, yourself in the world. And then you go to the theater again, immersed in this bizarre world of characters and destinies, plots and twists.
