Theater festivals and performances in Moldova and Romania

Overview

In September 2026, various theater productions and festivals are taking place in Moldova and Romania. In Chișinău, the Teatru-Spălătorie collective is presenting shows regarding the 80th anniversary of the end of World War II and the transition from the Soviet system to neoliberal democracy. Simultaneously, the ProBraila International Theater and Performing Arts Festival in Brăila, Romania, is featuring the play ‘The Man Who Brings the Rain’.
