The play's premiere based on Nikolai Krasheninnikov's novel "Amelya" will take place on the Small Stage of the Mazhit Gafuri Bashkir Academic Drama Theater.

The theater iss the first to stage this work of the Russian writer, who was even included in Bashkir schools' program in previous years. The novel was written in 1915 and told the story of the Bashkir orphan Amelya, who was raised in Orenburg as a daughter by a Russian noblewoman Anna Petrovna. Having received a good upbringing and education, having met a decent candidate for marriage, Amelya, feeling the call of blood, nevertheless left for the steppe, to her relatives. The directors identified the main character's self-identification as the central theme of the play.

The performance will be in a synthetic genre that combines dramatic action, a rich musical layer, and choreographic means. As always, the performance of the Bashkir Drama Theater is remembered for its acting performances. The purely dramatic roles of Anna Petrovna, Akhmet Bakirich, Maman will be played by experienced masters — People's Artists of Bashkortostan Gulnara Amirova, Almas Amirov, Alsu Galina. The role of Dornbild will be played by the actor Ural Aminev, who already played the great Rudolf Nureyev on the Bashkir stage several years.
