On February 18, the Romanian Theatre Association (UNITER) published the list of nominees for the 2024 UNITER Awards.

The jury made up of theatre critics Daria Ancuţa, Maria Zărnescu and Doru Mareş nominated The Misunderstanding in two distinct categories. The production staged by Mihai Măniuțiu got nominated for Best Performance, while Adrian Damian and Luiza Enescu received a nomination for Best Set and Costume Design.

Our heartfelt congratulations to the nominees!

Audiences are invited to view The Misunderstanding next on Monday, April 7, at 8 pm in the theatre’s Main Hall.

The editorial board of Bárka established this cash prize in 2000, which is awarded at the end of each year to authors who have been associated with the literary magazine for an extended period of time and who have contributed significantly to the magazine and its readers.

At the end of 2024, Bárka's editorial board decided to award this prestigious prize to Gábor Tompa and Zsolt Koppány Nagy.

The recipients will be presented with the award at the Bárka Gala Event in Békéscsaba.

Our warmest congratulations for the award!

The artistic awards for the 2023/2024 season were presented at the calendar year's final company meeting on December 27 at the Hungarian Theatre of Cluj.

Based on the votes of the theatre's Artistic Council, the following persons received the Artistic Award for their outstanding performances in the 2023/24 season:

Eszter Román (for her performance in The Nightingale), Zsolt Gedő (for his performance in The Nightingale) and Andrea Kali (for her performance in The Misunderstanding).

On December 17, 1792, the predecessor of the Hungarian Theatre of Cluj, the National Dramatic Society, began its activities with the performance of The Secret Opposition or Köleséri in the Rhédey Palace. This was the beginning of a continuous Hungarian theatrical life in Cluj. Since then, our institution has been a key pillar of Transylvanian Hungarian culture, enriching the lives of its audiences for more than two centuries and becoming a recognised figure on the national and international theatre scene.

For those who are interested in theatre history, we recommend the National Museum and Institute of Theatre History of Budapest exhibition of Noble Traces. The Theatre on Kogalniceanu street in Cluj. The exhibition was opened on the occasion of this year's Interferences Festival and is still on display in the theatre's upstairs lobby before performances.

Happy birthday!
