Marking the 145^th anniversary since the death of Vasil Levski, the Bulgarian Army Theater has resumed the production of the tragedy The Last Supper of Deacon Levski /1987/ by Stefan Tsanev. The national tour of the theater company with this play closes on 19 February with a show in Sofia. The work of Stefan Tsanev displays depth and dramatism as it explores the fate of a man who was far ahead of his time. „No one but Levski ventured to see beyond freedom”, Tsanev writes. Levski (aka the Apostle of Freedom) believed that Bulgarians should liberate themselves without the support of the Great Powers /which failed to happen, because part of the powerful revolutionary network set up by Levski was cracked down on untimely/. He was the first leader who saw Bulgaria as a democratic republic in which people from all ethnic communities and denominations would enjoy equal rights. „All nations shall live under the same fair and holy laws that God gave to man”, the Apostle of Freedom wrote. “Today when the talk of the day is only money as well as power and corruption, the image of idealist Levski becomes increasingly unattainable and increasingly wanted. It is not accidental that all Bulgarian statesmen keep above their heads his portrait – like an icon: an icon to pray, or an icon to fear?”, Stefan Tsanev once said in connection with The Last Supper of Deacon Levski, one of the most brilliant Bulgarian plays written in the past 50 years. The playwright took for his starting point the mysterious closing sentence found in the notes that Vasil Levski left. The sentence has only one word and four question marks – “People????”
