"Exchange"

by Dmytro Levytskyi


During my residence in the Kote Marjanishvili theater in Tbilisi I have written the play "Exchange". On the last day of the residence, November 26, students of theatrical institute named after Shota Rustaveli did a reading of the play in the theater.
This play is important to me since the text was written in collaboration with the actors themselves, who became donors for stories about Tbilisi, about Georgia. Moreover, the play is written in two languages ​​- Georgian and Russian. I hope this text will be staged at the theater in Georgia.
It is a piece about the Ukrainian playwright Zhenya, who is trying to use his talents - to fit into society, but in today's corrupt Ukraine he is not needed, the State does not need his services. Zhenya has the possible to go to Tbilisi and he wants to use this chance to at last be realized as a writer, as a playwright.
