THEATRE HAMASKAÏNE (SOS SARKISSIAN)

Situated in the immediate vicinity of Republic Square, this theatre was for a long time directed by one of the greatest actors of Armenian cinema and theatre, Sos Sarksian, who has now passed away, and to whom it owes its name. The theatre was created in the aftermath of independence by an institution born within the Armenian diaspora and dedicated to the protection and dissemination of Armenian culture and language, Hamaskain, which has many other institutions to its credit.
