The theater play "The Noble Boy" was staged for the first time at Magtymguly Musical and Drama Theater in Ashgabat.
According to ECI public relations quoting turkmenistan.gov.tm, the play narrates the history of Turkmen music and the services rendered by traditional narrators called 'Bakhshi' and portrays the efforts made by the country's artists to revive and preserve this art.
In his book 'Turkmenistan's Culture', the Turkmen President Gurbanguly Berdymukhamedov, points out to the lofty position of music as the spiritual heritage of Turkmen people and underscores the distinctiveness of any work of art that indicates a nation's spirit and worldview.
The play has been staged taking into account the historical roots yet hoping for a brighter future for the art of the Bakhshis.
