Zagreb cultural and performing arts developments

Overview

The cultural landscape in Zagreb is experiencing growth through new educational initiatives, musical performances, and international outreach.

Initial developments included the launch of the Musical Theatre Studio Zagreb, led by Dora Pletikosa and professor Marina Matolić, to provide integrated training in singing, dancing, and acting. The music scene also saw the return of the Icelandic electronic group GusGus for a performance at Tvornica kulture.

Subsequently, the theatre sector expanded its international presence when the Zagreb Youth Theatre (ZKM) performed ‘Jezik kopačke’ at the Royal Dramatic Theatre in Stockholm during the Bergman Festival. Locally, the Komedija Theatre announced auditions for its upcoming musical production, ‘Redovnice nastupaju’, scheduled for October 2026.
