On Friday, March 13, the Ayaz Gilyazov Naberezhnye Chelny State Tatar Drama Theater premiered a play dedicated to the 50th anniversary of the first KAMAZ truck.
The event was attended by the General Director of KAMAZ PJSC Sergey Kogogin, top managers of the auto giant, the mayor of Naberezhnye Chelny Nail Magdeev, KAMAZ workers and veterans of the plant. Among the honored guests of the festive evening was the Vice-Governor of St. Petersburg Vladimir Knyaginin.
"Today is a significant event for us, KAMAZ workers—we live by more than just hardware. Of course, our main hero is our truck; we pour all our energy, knowledge, love, and soul into it. But in the year of the first KAMAZ's 50th anniversary, we've tried to make sure it's not all about hardware, but also about people. Theatrical life is also, of course, important to us," noted Sergey Kogogin, greeting the KAMAZ workers. He also emphasized the significance of the first KAMAZ truck's production for the country and the lofty goals of that time. "Only a strong country could have such ambitions to build the world's largest plant in such a short time. Those who came 55 years ago to build KAMAZ are truly heroic people." "I can imagine what a moment it was for KAMAZ workers, for the city of Naberezhnye Chelny, and for the country when the first KAMAZ truck rolled off the assembly line on February 16, 1976. Our current generation certainly has no less ambition; we have always strived and continue to strive to be at the forefront of global automakers," said the company's CEO.
The production, based on the play by Naberezhnye Chelny playwright Artur Shaidulla, "My Horse Came Out of the Shadows/Chykty Atym Kulegeden," tells the story of the creation of the KAMAZ Mustang automobile and the continuity of generations. It tells the story of how there is always room for heroism—a labor feat and a feat in the name of the Motherland.
The action unfolds in two worlds: in the designer's office, where the first Mustang was created, and in the present day, when the truck continues to serve the defenders of the Fatherland on the front lines. The production's main characters are strong-willed individuals. Furthermore, the KAMAZ-4350 truck takes center stage, becoming a full-fledged participant in the events. The production is presented in two languages – Tatar and Russian (headphones with simultaneous translation are provided for Russian-speaking audiences).
The performance was created in the year of the 50th anniversary of the first KAMAZ vehicle and the 400th anniversary of the city of Naberezhnye Chelny, commissioned by KAMAZ PJSC as a token of gratitude to the plant's workers, city residents, and all those who defend national interests today.
