I said I’m not excited, but what did I do.
As soon as I came back, I dropped the papers.
I’m really excited, it’s very different from going out on the stage.
You are all welcome.
I’m really excited, nobody believes it.
(Laugh)
I’m excited, I see it now.
Now, sir, did I say welcome? I said, I said.
I do not know who shared the social media, but,
there is something like this, you read a lot, you ask me.
Levent Ülgen, who plays in Sinan role in Akasya Durağı,
METU graduated with an average of 4.00 from Physics.
(Laugh)
Now, sir, I’ve got my transcript.
(Laugh)
Valla, your notes are right.
(Applause)
Year 79, I entered ODTÜ, preparatory years, there was a blow after me.
(Laugh)
I already barely learned English in the first grade.
Disgusting, fighting fight every day.
First semester is 0.83,
second semester 1.50.
(Laugh)
Bullshit, repeat.
(Laugh)
I study second year first class; 2.25.
Second semester 2,74.
In the second grade 2.03 complex mathematics is there for me, complex calculus.
What I did after that, I passed the second class, 2.17.
2.47. 2.83.
Last class: 3,07. Honor list.
(Applause)
And last semester: 4.00.
(Applause)
Vallahi document.
What are the lessons I learned: Silicon Technology and World Theater History.
One is elective, but I finished with 4.00?
I finished.
Do I have a certificate? There is.
Some do not even have diplomas.
(Applause)
Thank goodness I have diplomas like two doors.
One from ODTÜ, one from Hacettepe.
That’s it, keep this secret between us, okay?
Everyone thinks I’m finished with 4.00, but I think I’ve finished in four years.
Keep this between us.
But there is 4.00 transcript, show demand.
Now, sir, because of my father’s duty
I read two years in Konya town of Konya.
We were appointed to Ankara in the third year.
My father was an officer,
Here is the political period, and my dad came home one evening.
He gave me a 250 pounds then he said with his money,
” I made the first record of Dershaneye. I paid the installment, this is your second installment.
If you want to go with this money, have fun in the puddle of the bar,
If you want to go to the classroom,
win university,
read like a man,
save yourself, because I can give you a factory,
I can give a loom, no shop, no field, only one way to read, ” he said.
I cried so much for that night.
Oh, why does my dad say so?
Why our financial situation is not good.
The next day I was of course written in class.
At that time, while going to the classroom in Kızılay,
theater curiosity began.
I started watching the game.
The first game I watch is, of course, because we were out of Ankara for many years,
I did not have much theater chance, my chances of watching.
The first game I watched was the Ankara Art Theater
” Unsuitable Infantry ”, Ugur Mumcu.
I am very impressed, very pleased the theater.
I was in another world.
Then I watched a theater every week, every weekend I went to the classroom
I started to watch a theater absolutely.
Then we went to the exams, the results do not come immediately in two minutes,
then you need to wait two or three months.
One day while waiting for the results,
I walk down to my friends.
I saw the signboard of Ankara Folk Theater.
I said for a moment that I would be a theater actress.
I said I would be a player. My friends are laughing.
I went, there were courses.
I was written in the courses.
There was news a month later, I got METU Physics, nice.
Dad passed the first stage, that is, we got ODTÜ, a good university.
By the way, my 17th choice.
(Laugh)
We prefer 18, my prefer 17.
18. I prefer Language History Theater.
Theater courses, METU, preparation was very difficult.
My English was always bad, it was always a problem.
Meanwhile the parentheses, during which I spent five years studying physics
I do not understand reading a single question in English.
Always guess; If ulan has given acceleration, he is asking for speed.
If he gives speed, he will ask time.
Hani Mathematics was easy; I said find the value, I figured it out,
I did not solve it by understanding a single question.
I do not say that either.
Then I was barely ready.
First year, just like I told you, I stayed in the transcript.
My dad was not interested in all of this, my theater.
Which is a person who is interested in art.
He read very good poetry, even wrote, at least.
I said, you do not get involved in the theater, I will bring you this diploma.
Promise? Promise.
That’s why it’s rising.
Just to get away to the theater.
I always make my theater and play Ankara Folk Theater
and I earned my tuition from Ankara Art Theater.
I did theater
and dad does not give this diploma a diploma to this transcript,
my first job was to escape the conservatory.
I won the theater department.
I finished Vallahi’s first place.
But this time it’s not something, so I ended up really first.
Then, the story of the State Theater started.
I entered State theaters.
I was assigned to Trabzon.
At that time, of course I love the theater very much,
the day I first shot it, the day I first watched the theater,
that is, the hani say love at first sight,
something like that happened.
I mean, a monster got in.
I can not sleep without it, even the night dreams enter the theater.
I went to Trabzon, now I am a school graduate,
and an element in State Theaters
and I feel a great deal of pressure on my political views.
Because it started at Ankara State Theater, continued at Ankara Art Theater,
I do not need to say what your opinion is.
I feel overwhelmed pressure by the administration.
Or I think so.
And I intervene in all kinds of wrongs, injustice
and I object, a complete dissent, a rebellious man.
This made the administration very angry.
They gave me a lot of punishment.
And I started to get a little tired and aged, the eye started to be afraid.
One night I said that being so dissenting,
There is no point in appealing so much, I’m the best man
I said, give up.
At that moment I saw my books in my library.
Nazim had books.
I got one: Bursa Prison, I read.
13 years in prison, 13 years.
You wrote poems there, wrote epics.
You taught people to paint.
You learned to do weaving in them, you were 13 years.
I could not stand 13 months, did I?
Very shameful! I am so embarrassed myself.
I said, ” It’s not a matter of captivity, it’s all about not surrendering. ”
And for the first time there, I decided not to surrender after that.
Then, while my life in Trabzon continues,
one day Melih Cevdet Anday came to Trabzon.
Again I am doing such a fierce heated opposition.
I yell and call.
Melih took the attention of Cevdet Anday.
I can ask you something, lad, he said.
Sure, I said.
You said, ‘Will you know Galileo?’
I do not know Galileo, sir, I said physicist,
at the same time played in Ankara Sanat Bertolt Brecht wrote,
I played it too, I said, it was my first course of action.
She said, well.
You know Giordano Bruno, he said.
I said, I do not know. Giordano Bruno has a game too.
I said, I read it.
I said, I love you.
I will tell you the story, then tell me at Ankara State Theater
Giordano Bruno, it seemed necessary to play the role.
I said, you know him.
Well, she said, which one is right?
Which, he said, do you agree?
Of course I said Giordano Bruno.
Why, he said.
Because, I said, Galileo gave up, scared, stepped back,
The world has said that it is not the center of the universe,
but seeing the torture instruments of the Inquisition
scared, stepped back, even lying.
Okay, he went to his house and he wrote his last piece in jail,
he still denied himself.
But I said Giordano is like that.
Seven years resisted the work of the Inquisition,
for seven years, and even in the wake of the language to speak,
” God is in man, ”
The world is not the center of the universe, “he said.
Of course I support this guy, I believe that.
He said, “How old are you?”
I said 28.
Come to the age of 48, let’s talk again, he said.
(Laugh)
Thank God I am 55 years old, I still believe in Giordano Bruno,
I still give her the right.
(Applause)
Of course Giordano is as stubborn as Bruno, I can not be as brave as he is,
but at least I have Giordano Bruno in my heart.
And when I played this role at Ankara State Theater,
It was a Saturday.
I chose this business, I am determined,
the cause and reason that I once again do not appreciate
I experienced an incident.
There were young people.
There was chirping noise coming from inside.
Some of our friends, or even brought children,
They brought people from the middle school, they said, it’s a heavy game.
Because he is tortured, he is finally burned Giordano,
Even when burned, it tears the tongue.
We said, let’s play and we decided to play.
The game is over, a group of students ran out.
Indeed, from such clothes, a little bit of
It was like a kid in the suburbs, a little poor.
Here, they wanted to talk to me.
I do not remember where you’re coming from, they called you from that school, but I suppose
again one of our poor neighborhoods.
I said, are you a middle school student,
she said, we are high school students.
Are you a high school student?
No, she said high school last.
I said tomorrow I have a university exam, you will enter the university.
Yes, they said, do not think of us as teachers,
He brought us here for morale.
Oh, I said, how nice. There was a girl out there,
I apologize, indeed, my nose is sore.
I want to read a lot of college.
I know that university study is very important.
But after watching this game, I will definitely be studying at the university, he said.
Even if a person earns, it is a record for me in this profession.
It was the biggest success.
(Applause)
I knew I’d be excited, but I never thought I’d cry.
There has never been a tide in my life about the theater.
From the very beginning I’ve decided, I’ve been in love since the very beginning,
I always loved, because I believed in theater.
I believe that the theater will make me a better and better person.
I hope so too.
Thank you.
(Applause)
