The Fly Away Theatre

The major significance of location has been lost for theatre as a concept and phenomenon. Theatre today is ephemeral, with actors, plays and audiences travelling the world freely. The main remaining peculiar feature of a theatre’s particular location is its architectural embodiment, the theatre building, which like its creators is, in metaphysical sense of the word, travelling, until it anchors in a specific place. Kazakh theatre has deep historical roots. It stems from “steppe theatre” phenomenon, in the original language called “Aytys” – a unique kind of talent contest in the open air, with exceptional natural backdrops and the wind contributing to the unique nature of Kazakh theatre art. The building’s visually floating composition, reminiscent of a yurt, represents the semantics of historical traditions and perfectly reflects the significance of the site. The theatre’s structure asserts its expressive and easily perceived unique spatial form, influencing its surroundings. The design of the Russian Drama Theatre is based on a diamond in the rough, the precious stone’s state before its transformation into a refined diamond. In this form, it represents the primal state of the idea that is further refined and embodied inside the structure. The mirrored surfaces on the building and the water mirrors surrounding it reflect the environment and people, providing a connection between metaphysical form and the context of the location, here reflected on the soaring cantilever structure of the main entrance. The urban importance of this building, situated across from the Presidential Palace at the very centre of the city’s compositional axes, adds to the iconic building’s quality and makes it fully recognisable as a local symbol.
