This performance has a big success at the time of strained political situation, "- the British actors letter reads.
They noted in his letter that the dismissal was only the reason to achieve desirable ends.
"This was only a reason to move out form eh Georgian Theatre this internationally recognized treasure. We hope that the Georgian President Mikheil Saakshvili will revise the decision about the dismissal of Robert Sturua and will take an appropriate decision, " - the letter reads.
