FREESTYLE: PINOCCHIO BY CHILDREN'S MUSICAL THEATER

28 Feb 19

YARAT Contemporary Art Space presents the performance by Children’s Musical Theatre of Music School-studio.

Conceived and created almost 40 years ago by its artistic director, Professor Tarlan Seyidov, the Children's Musical Theater is growing and developing, while remaining loyal to its traditions.

The repertoire of the Children's Musical Theater was enriched with new performances over the past few years. Now it includes the highly acclaimed “Bremen Town Musicians”, the almost serious mini-opera “Iskander and Shepherd”, and the musical-historical journey “I love you, Khazar” as well as an ultra-modern musical revue “When the Stars come Down on us”

This time the creative team turned to classics - the immortal and much admired “Buratino” (“Pinocchio”) by Alexei Tolstoy and the wonderful music by composer Alexei Rybnikov. Unlike past performances, this time children not only dance and sing live, but also try themselves in the new genre of Comedy del Arte.

The performance is delivered by 22 students from primary school, high-school and college. All kids received acting training in theatrical studio.
