Azerbaijan State Theatre of Young Spectators and Ganja State Drama Theater Granted National Theatre Status
Like other sectors in our country, President Ilham Aliyev of the Republic of Azerbaijan always pays special attention to the cultural field, particularly theater, the main branch of art. At the same time, with the initiative and support of the First Vice-President, and the head of the Heydar Aliyev Foundation, Mehriban Aliyeva, important work is being done to improve the social conditions of cultural figures and expand creative opportunities.
As part of this policy, the Cabinet of Ministers has elevated the Azerbaijan State Theatre of Young Spectators and the Ganja State Drama Theater to "national" status. This is viewed as the next step towards the development of theatre in our country and raising the reputation of this field.
The new status will provide a viable incentive to improve the financial well-being of individuals working in these long-standing theaters with their own artistic traditions, and will also stimulate creative endeavors.
Currently, efforts are underway to reinforce the material and technical resources of state theaters, alongside changes in both institutional and content aspects within this field.
