The Paronyan Musical Comedy Theater and the Sos Sargsyan National State Theater were ordered to shut down in March due to the Covid-19 pandemic and  lockdown in Armenia. Faced with an uncertain future, the theaters came up with innovative ways to keep their audiences engaged from home: The Paronyan Musical Comedy Theater started posting performances online, including videos at home with the help of the actors, and the Sos Sargsyan National State Theater filmed videos in a theatrical way and streamed them on YouTube and Facebook.
