For the first time, Heydar Aliyev Palace has presented a dramatic musical performance "Princess Mary", based on Mikhail Lermontov's novel "Hero of Our Time".

This chapter of the novel is written in the form of diary notes by ensign Grigory Pechorin and provides an opportunity to look into the depths of the soul of the protagonist of the novel, who serves in the Caucasus.

It tells about the romantic story of an officer whose reckless love game turns into a tragedy for himself - a man who clearly does not fit into the laws of the time in which fate has sentenced him to live ...
