In this part of the article I am continuing to discuss Robert Sturua’s plays: ‘Betrayal’ (1974) by Sumbatashvil-Iuzhin, ‘Step-mother of Samanishvili’ (1969) by Kldiashvili (with Chkheidze) and ‘Kvarkvare Tutaberi’ (1974) by Kakabadze. Robert Sturua’s Georgian classical plays set in the Rustaveli theatre have had relative success. Nevertheless, they have become the subject of active discussions among the society. Probably reason for this was a completely new approach by the director. When setting ‘Betrayal’ the director refuses to accept all other older traditions of staging this play, as he had done it in the cases of ‘Step-mother of Samanishvili’ and ‘Kvarkvare Tutaberi’. On the contrary he tries to widen the events of a concrete epoch and make this national character more universal.
