WILLIAM SHAKESPEARE ON THE STAGE OF THE UZBEK NATIONAL ACADEMIC DRAMA THEATRE

Abstract

Purpose of the study: This article examines the history of staging the works of the English playwright William Shakespeare at the Uzbek National Academic Drama Theatre and analyzes the influence of classical dramaturgy on the creative development of the theatre troupe. In addition, the directors’ and actors’ interpretations of the staged works are highlighted separately.

Methods: Source analysis, scientific–practical analysis, historical analysis.

Results: The history of staging William Shakespeare’s works at the Uzbek National Academic Drama Theatre was studied, and their current state was analyzed.

Scientific novelty: The dramaturgy of the English playwright William Shakespeare has significant practical importance in the formation of the Uzbek theatre, which was established in the European style. Therefore, studying the staging of the playwright’s works in the Uzbek theatre is considered one of the important aspects of theatre studies. Shakespeare’s works serve as a major creative school for the professional development of theatrical art in our country. The research aims to study and analyze not only the historical creative processes of Uzbek theatre art, but also the present-day status of theatre and classical works within modern Uzbek cultural life. The absence of comprehensive scientific sources on the staging of Shakespeare’s dramaturgy in the Uzbek theatre to date necessitates a systematic analytical study of these creative processes.

Practical application: This research can be used as a scientific source for teaching foreign dramaturgy in Uzbek theatre education. In addition, it serves to promote Uzbek theatrical art at the international level.
