Where We Truly Belong

Experience a compelling theatrical journey on April 7 at 8:00 PM at the Sokhumi State Drama Theatre. Directed by Merab Kolbaia, 'Where We Truly Belong' centers on a family shaped by Abkhazia’s historical turmoil. The play draws the audience into the life of a mixed family – an Abkhazian father, Georgian mother, and their teenage son searching for beauty amid turbulent circumstances. As psychological strain mounts, additional characters—a tenant, Russian-speaking priest, and an Abkhazian doctor who studied in Tbilisi—add layers to the story. Their interactions reveal the deeply complex social and personal challenges that accompanied Abkhazia’s separation. The production is visually shaped by stage designer Nino Kutelia. Assistant director: Svetlana Gogokhia. Cast includes Nika Chkadua, Edemi Khvichia, Lela Sharabidze, Julieta Pakeliani, Laliko Gherkenashvili, Levan Lezhava, David Beradze, and Merab Kolbaia. The performance lasts 1 hour and 40 minutes and is recommended for audiences aged 10 and up.
