In the spring of 53 BC, the first theatrical production of Armenian reality was staged in the historical capital of Armenia, Artashat, on the initiative of King Artavazd, which is rightfully still considered the cradle of the Armenian theater. The first curtain of the first theater opened with the production of the Greek tragedian and playwright Euripides's 'Bacchante women', proclaiming that the Armenian world with its centuries-old culture was glorified by its theater. And so millennia have passed, but the Armenian theater, with its ebbs and flows, has come and reached our days. We can list the names of many outstanding people in the preservation and development of the Armenian theater, but the survival of our Artashat Theater is most of all connected with the work of the great grateful AMO Kharazyan, after whom our theater has been named for eighty-three years. In fact, since 1933, the Artashat Theater has had the status of a state theater. Having no permanent operating building, the theater's performances were organized in the Artashat courthouse. Alexander Tamanyan's project began in 1937.
