On 25 June, from 8 pm, Young Barbarians, directed by Attila Vidnyánszky, Jr., will be featured at the 31st Sibiu International Theatre Festival.

The Sibiu International Theatre Festival (FITS), one of the largest and most important theatre festivals in the world, will take place in Sibiu between June 21-30. The festival programme includes 830 events and welcomes over 5,000 artists from 82 countries. The theme of the 31st edition is FRIENDSHIP.

The production has already been performed at several festivals, such as the 10th Theatre Olympics, the XI Madách International Theatre Meeting (MITEM), the 33rd National Theatre Festival in Bucharest and the 14th dráMA Contemporary Theatre Encounter.

On Saturday, the 29th of June, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's last opera, La Clemenza di Tito, will have its national premiere at the Bucharest National Opera, directed by Gábor Tompa and conducted by Ábel Tompa, both of whom are working with the Bucharest National Opera for the first time, this being also their first professional collaboration.

"I think that in the music, in the recitativos, in the arias, you can feel this subtle understanding of the depths of the human soul, of women, of men, of the desire for power, of purity of spirit, of honesty, of lying, of friendship, of devotion to somebody; every type of person is different and this is portrayed in music and dramatic situations with unparalleled detail." - Gábor Tompa.

In the competition section of the Oradea International Theatre Festival, Csilla Albert won the Best Actress Award for the title role of Elektra (directed by Botond Nagy), while Dragoș Buhagiar won the Best Set and Costume Designer Award, also for Elektra. In addition, the performance has also been nominated for Best Director and Best Performance.

Our heartfelt congratulations to the winners!
