The thirty-third edition of the International Theatre Festival Divadelná Nitra is halfway through. "The course of Divadelná Nitra so far can be considered successful. All the scheduled events took place. We were pleased with the public interest in the different types of programme. The weather, that was the main bonus of the different timing of the Festival (brought to late Spring), was on our side over the weekend as well. On the first day, KníhKupecká was highly popular, as was the interactive environment in front of the Festival headquarters – this year it is the venue bod.K7 and the Black Box object. The flair of the actors Miloslav König and Václav Vašák of Theatre Na zabradlí and set design by Dragan Stojchevsky were very well received. The similarity is purely coincidental with the great public debate between two Slovak intellectuals Michal Hvorecký and his guest Michal Havran on Sunday night. On Friday night, Nitra architecture afficionados experienced a unique walk through the buildings of the late architect Oskar Singer. The event Night for Ukraine and Day for Ukraine featured a concert, film screening, testimonies of Ukrainians living in Nitra, and a staged reading of Ukrainian plays performed by the actors of The Andrej Bagar Theatre were quite special," reflects the Festival Director Darina Kárová. Do join us for the performances and events of the second half of the Festival. More about what’s on is at the Festival website.
