Lived the roles with tears in their eyes: how in the village of Svetloe Ozero in the Zainsky district they performed "A Little Flame in the Wind"

      The women of the village created unforgettable images of women at war, and the audience did not hide their emotions. As part of the district theater festival-competition of theatrical creativity "Courage through the Prism of Theater," a performance of "A Flicker in the Wind" was held at the Svetloozersky Rural House of Culture. The production is based on a play by Tamara Makarskaya, written back in 1975. It tells the story of the difficult fate of women and children during the Great Patriotic War. The action unfolds in one of the hamlets captured by the Germans. A mother with her daughter and a baby in her arms are preparing to leave their home to join a partisan group along with other women and children who found themselves in the hamlet. The performance left no one indifferent. Many audience members had tears in their eyes. Each actor poured their soul into their role—there were no indifferent people on stage. Thanks to the skill and dedication of the participants, they managed to convey the very essence of that terrible time. The roles were played by: Anna Mikhailovna (Vera's mother) — Irina Ivanova, Vera (daughter) — Elvira Shatunova, Lyubka (friend) — Tatyana Blokhina, Tonya (refugee) — Albina Khairullina, Masha (refugee) — Arina Deeva. The audience thanked the artists with loud applause.
