On February 20, the Nakhchivan State Puppet Theater named after Mahammad Tagi Sidqi presented the play "The Little Red Riding Hood" at Ordubad Region Culture House for children and schoolchildren.
People's Artist Shirzad Abutalibov, the director of the theater, spoke briefly to the audience about the activity of the Nakhchivan State Puppet Theater. It was noted that the theater plays an important role in upbringing of children in the spirit of national and spiritual values, in the formation of aesthetic pleasure in them. The theater, which was established in 1989, has also been on tours abroad and has been participating in theater festivals and has gained the audience's love.
There are numerous films, cartoons and performances about the famous "The Little Red Riding Hood" tale. Well-known Russian playwright Evgeny Schwartz is the author of the performance which is based on the world-famous tale by French writer and poet Charles Perrault. Scenes on the spectacle are based on the adventures of the girl in a red hat. The main characters of the play are the girl in a red hat, her grandmother and Wolf.
