Belarusian performances in Nyasvizh county

On the second day of Orthodox Easter, Belarusian performances took place: 1) in the village of Ivanava, Lań commune, the play "Modny Shlyakhtsyuk" (The Fashionable Little Nobleman) was staged; 2) in the village of Lysitsy, Haradzieja commune, the play "Zbyantezhany Savka" (Savka Bewildered) was staged; 3) in the village of Klapatsichy, Sinyava commune, the play "Pinskaya Shlyakhta" (The Pinsk Gentry) was staged.

Many other villages intended to stage Belarusian performances, but on formal grounds the Nyasvizh Starosta's Office did not issue permission.

One of the difficult formalities which the Starosta's Office increasingly demands is the submission of a translation of the play into Polish. Only rarely will a translator be found in a village, and for this reason performances are often called off.
