Conan and Zamora's butterfly

1st MOSDŘaK OO ORDURES UZP NPCh, SS (this is the abbreviation of the whole name of the theater group) depicted the story of Conan in a very specific way. To be closer to the time in which Howard wrote his books about Conan, none of the actors spoke a single word during the play and all the text was projected on a makeshift screen above the actors and the play also had a live musical accompaniment of a violin and a flute, as if it was one of silent movies which were so popular in Howard's days. It should be noted that the area where the text was displayed was sometimes also used for displaying a location, such as the interiors of the palace from the game Prince of Persia (1990), which raised a wave of geniune nostalgia in many viewers.
