Description

The Marjanishvili Theatre — decades of history and two great women in one dressing room — Veriko Anjaparidzeand Sesilia Takaishvili.
Their names alone are enough to awaken love and respect in Georgian audiences — to enchant, to remind, and to inspire reflection.

Veriko and Sesilia represent a grand story closely intertwined with the pivotal moments in the development of Georgian theatre and cinema — moments of triumph, admiration, and sorrow.

Veriko and Sesilia — two names without which the existence of Georgian theatre and film is unimaginable.

On January 30 at 8:00 PM, at the Kote Marjanishvili State Drama Theatre, theatre scholar Nikoloz Tsulukidze will share extraordinarily fascinating stories hidden beyond the walls of a single dressing room — stories of creative rise and fall, pain and sorrow, and immeasurable joy.
Stories shaped by two extraordinary women — Veriko and Sesilia.

Marjanishvili Theatre

8, K. Marjanishvili St.

Kote Marjanishvili State Academic Drama Theatre is a state theatre in Tbilisi, Georgia. It is one of the oldest and most significant theatres in the country, coming second perhaps only to the national Rustaveli Theatre. The theatre was founded in Kutaisi in 1928 by Kote Marjanishvili. It moved to Tbilisi in 1930 to the former Brothers Zubalashvili philanthropic "Public House", the building it still occupies. The theatre's art nouveau edifice was thoroughly renovated and reopened in 2006 with the premiere of Bertolt Brecht's The Threepenny Opera. The theatre building was designed by Polish architect Stefan Kryczyński, while its construction was led by another Polish architect Aleksander Rogojski, municipal architect of Tbilisi.
