The Artistic director of the Theatre
Davit Kintsurashvili
The musical-chorographical drama based on The First Garment, the most wellknown work of Guram Dochanashvili, the modern Georgian classical writer, tells us the story of adventure-seeking Domenico who is deeply affected by the narrative of a mysterious man – a refugee. Domenico leaves his father, his home and native village to have adventures. Over the years, Domenico meets many different people and learns the essence of friendship, love, vile, virtue, sincerity, honesty, as well as what would happen if death did not exist, and realizes that it is love that the earth revolves around. This is a story about understanding vile and virtue, based on the Parable of the Prodigal Son.
