The project tells a story about the only dramatic theater in Russia, where all actors has genetic disorders (mostly Down syndrome). The project was time-consuming (5 months of work), but the result was impressive. The Federation Council (the upper house of the Federal Assembly of Russia) involved all heads of the Committee for Science, Culture, Education, Public Health and Ecology to help this theatre and its actors.
Important: it was the first time in the history of Kommersant when Government showed an interest to the story and initiated a solution to the problem.
