The Crimean State Youth Theater successfully performed at the II All-Russian Festival of Russian Fairytales "Golden Fish" in Penza, held from October 10 to 19. The play "Gusilebedi.ru" was recognized by the jury in three main categories.

At the conclusion of the festival, the theater received awards for "Best Scenography and Costumes" (Dimitry Nikolaev, Sergey Permyakov), "Best Director" (Andrey Permyakov, Anastasia Permyakova), and a special jury prize "For the Role of Vanechka" (Sergey Tolstykh).

Additionally, the theater was awarded a certificate to showcase its performance at the Central House of Actors in Moscow as part of the "Theatrical Province" project.

As noted by Elena Glebova, a member of the festival's expert council and a theater critic, the play "targets a reading child and an intelligent adult," which speaks to the depth of artistic expression and the educational value of the production. It is particularly significant that a performance that has maintained its relevance for 11 years continues to speak to modern audiences through the language of traditional values and folk wisdom.

This project, implemented with the support of the Presidential Fund for Cultural Initiatives, clearly demonstrates the successful integration of theaters from Russia’s historical regions into the national cultural space and contributes to strengthening the unified cultural field of the country.
