Өткен жылы бізде жаңа пьеса қойылды. Пьеса әуелі оқылып және талданды. Оның барлығымызға ұнағаны соншама, бірнеше күндер бойы сол туралы айтылып жүрілді. Рөлдерді ойнауды бөліп бергеннен кейін, жаттығу басталды. Бір күндері театрдың режиссеры, бізге келді. Ол бізге бірнеше құнды кеңестерін берді. Ақыр аяғында спектакль дайын болды. Пьесаны институттық кешенде қоюға шешім қабылдады. Мұндай жағдайда шақыру қағазын жібереді. Біздерде қаланың барлық оқу орындарына шақыру қағазын жібердік. Көптен күткен кешіміз болды. Зал түгелдей толық, барлық орындар бос болмады. Соңғы қоңырау соғылды. Спектакль басталды. Біздің пьессамызды көрушілеріміз қошеметпен қарсы алды. Барлық жақтан дауыс естілді: «Декорацияны кім ойып жасады, костюмдерді кім жасады?». Спектакль үлкен табысқа ие болды және осыдан кейін бірнеше рет қайтадан қойылды.
