International theatre festivals in Macedonia and Bulgaria

Overview

The 23rd International Festival of Ancient Drama ‘Stobi’ in North Macedonia features a competition of five plays from various nations, including Italy and Serbia. The festival includes productions such as ‘Begalka’ from the Strumica Theatre, with a jury tasked to select winners for best direction, production, and acting roles.

As the festival progresses, the Dramatic Theatre Skopje is scheduled to perform the chamber play ‘Fall of Masada’. Directed by Dejan Projkovski, the production explores themes of sacrifice, ideology, and heroism by connecting historical events from the Roman siege of Masada to the final days of the Nazi regime in a Berlin bunker.
