This year, the Festival marks the 55th anniversary of the USSR's first manned mission to space.

The event will feature performances from several countries including Estonia, Kyrgyz, Russian, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Uzbek and Belarusian.

Azerbaijan is presented by the State Russian Drama Theatre and actors under the leadership of theater's directors Aleksandr Sharovski and Adalat Hajiyev will stage the play "You shall not joke with love " by A. Potapova..

The Azerbaijan Academic Drama Theatre was established in 1873 when famous oil magnate and philanthropist Zeynalabdin Tagiyev built the theatre building, in the European style, with beautiful architecture and a spacious hall. Elements of theatricality were contained in many kinds of national creativity accompanying national festivities, traditional holidays and other occasions.
