For ten days Bucharest has been not just a capital city, but a theatrical capital too. This was possible due to a marathon of events both on stage and off it that engaged guest theaters from Romania and abroad and, in addition to the National Opera, the National Operetta Theater, the National University of Theatrical and Cinematographic Art, ArCuB, the Löwendal Foundation and the Act Theater Teahouse, almost all the theaters of Bucharest, acting as guests and hosts.
Cultural personalities, theater managers and major national and international festival directors, Romanian and foreign critics and journalists were introduced to the 2010-2011 season’s best shows in Romanian theater and more.
32 productions, each scheduled for two or three performances, conferences and colloquiums, seven theater book launches, the opening of an exhibition, plus the informal meetings between the participants, were as many occasions for both specialists and a large audience to encounter spiritual elevation and professional excellence.
Hoping that the 21st edition of the National Theater Festival has been a time of enjoyment, we wish you a season full of great shows and… we’ll be waiting for you at the 22nd edition!
