The Armenian Youth Foundation prepared and presented an English speaking play named ANI on the 28th of April 2005 in “Pier Keusseyan Hall” Sharjah.
The teenagers who have been working for 6 months presented the story of half an Armenian girl – NAIRI – who wanted to visit Moush in honor of her grandfather, who was originally from there and survived the genocide.
In a flash back to the 1915 we can see the teenagers' theatrical abilities both in playing the role of a lover – mother – victim and crazy persons all done in high touch of responsibility and integrity.
There was no place for fake imotions as if we were in front of professionals. It was a remarkable work specially using the english language to make the armenian cause open to all nationalities.
At the end the song “menk kitch enk sagayn mez hy en asoom” by Barouyr Sevag was sang both in English and Armenian.
Good job
