A video of a theatrical show presented in the “Magic City” amusement park has spread on social media. The show featured a scene of suicide.
As seen in the video, one of the performers was hanging from a high pole by the neck with a rope, thus depicting an act of suicide. Many people were present at the show, including young children.
The press secretary of the Tashkent city administration, Gulnoza Qosimova, acknowledged being aware of the video circulated on social media, stating that “Magic City” is a private area and that the scene causing debates was not organized in collaboration with the city, the Chilonzor district administration, or the city's cultural department, nor were they informed beforehand.
“This event was not agreed with us; we were only made aware of it after the incident had occurred”, says the press secretary.
This sensational topic has elicited a response from "Magic city".
According to them, these specific shots were indeed recorded during the park's nightly show, the “Water Show” demonstrated daily at 22:30.
It is noted that the fragment spread on the network was taken out of context, not fully reflecting the plot of the show or the artistic idea. The show's script revolves around the classic tale of the conflict between good and evil, where in the end, the villain lifts the hero into the air with the help of a special security system.
