The "Revived Portraits" play performed by Russian-speaking children and adolescents living in Sweden was shown in Moscow and the Moscow Region. The performance is dedicated to Russian poets of the Silver Age.
The "Pages of an Old Album" literary school was created in Sweden four years ago, bringing together children and teenagers who speak Russian and are in love with Russian literature, music and theater. The school is headed by director from Moscow, People's Artist of Georgia Elena Kilosanidze.
The trip to Russia became an important event in the school's history. In Moscow, the "Revived Portraits" was put on the stage of Marina Tsvetaeva's house-museum.
The children recited works by Alexander Blok, Ivan Bunin, Osip Mandelstam, Anna Akhmatova, Nikolai Gumilyov and many other Russian poets of the Silver Age. Several romance songs were perfromed as well.
