Tonight, May 8, the György Harag Company of the Satu Mare Northern Theatre will premiere Eugène Ionesco’s absurdist drama The Bald Soprano, directed by Gábor Tompa.
Eugène Ionesco’s body of work has played a defining role in Gábor Tompa’s career as a director: over the past three decades, he has staged the author’s plays in numerous countries and in several languages. His previous Ionesco productions include The Bald Soprano, Jack, or The Submission, Rhinoceros, The New Tenant, The Chairs, A Stroll in the Air, and Exit the King, which he has staged in Cluj-Napoca, Paris, Prague, Timișoara, Bucharest, Luxembourg, and Newcastle.
Gábor Tompa’s staging will be presented on Tuesday, May 12, at 7 p.m. as part of the 37th Piatra Neamț Theater Festival on the stage of the Youth Theater. Cluj audiences can view I Am the Wind on Sunday, May 10 and Thursday, June 11 in the theater’s Studio.
The production, based on the play by Nobel Prize-winning Jon Fosse, received several nominations from the Romanian Theater Union (UNITER) in 2026: Gyopár Bocskai for Best Set and Costume Design, Csaba Boros for Best Original Music, and Romeo Groza for Best Lighting Design.
We regret to inform our audiences that the performance of Hamlet, scheduled for March 8, at 7 pm, is rescheduled due to unforeseen events on May 20, at 7 pm.
