The composition of the theater changes annually, in connection with the graduation of the senior course from the walls of the university. Therefore, with the beginning of the new academic year, the theater was replenished with freshmen. In 2020, on September 25, an online casting was announced and more than twenty students were admitted to the theater. On October 27, the casting was announced for the second time, and 10 more students were added to the theater staff. Now 54 students are performing in the theater "Shanyrak".

Since its inception, the theater "Shanyrak" has been taking part in republican and regional cultural events. In 2020, the theater organized a challenge dedicated to the 175th anniversary of Abay in order to popularize the words of edification and poetry of Abay. In connection with the global pandemic, all work is carried out online. The theater actors read the words of edification or Abay's poetry twice a week, shoot videos and post them on the pages of the university and the theater in social networks.

In the new academic year, the theater has updated its repertoire with a new performance. In the first ten days of November, actors and actresses will be selected who will take part in M. Baydzhiev's play "The Shore" (directed by A. Karimov), and work will begin on staging the play.
