György Harag Centenary

Throughout its 233 years of existence, the Hungarian State Theater of Cluj has known several periods of crisis, being forced to change its headquarters several times, surviving moments that jeopardized its very existence. But never in the last 75 years has the theatre faced the danger of suspending artistic activity in the middle of a season.

After in 2024 the Romanian Ministry of Culture cut 51% of the year's budget allocated for goods and services, this year these expenses have been reduced by another 32%.

In 2025 we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the birth of the great director György Harag, who passed away 40 years ago. Considered the most important figure of Hungarian-language theater in Romania and one of the greatest directors in the entire post-war history of Romanian theater, his name is among...

232 years of Hungarian-language theatre in Cluj!

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!
