THE THEATRE INSTITUTE IS 50 YEARS OLD
28. 01. 2011
For the year 2011 it prepared a rich offer of events under the subtitle We Have Room for any Theatre!
“The slogan We Have Room for any Theatre is not a mere phrase. It reflects the long-time effort of this institution to map broadly and correctly the ways of Slovak theatre, to capture its etheral moments despite the fact that it is obvious from the beginning that they are only temporal and they last only in the time of their stage presentation. Thanks to the Theatre Institute and its systematic documentation we prolong life of theatre and draw attention to its continuity.”
Vladislava Fekete, Managing Director of the Theatre Institute
