The Regina Maria Theater announces its participation in World Autism Awareness Day.

Today, April 2, 2014, between 8:00 PM and 10:00 PM, the Regina Maria Theater building will be "dressed" in blue as a sign of respect for those suffering from autism. The action is organized by the SOS Autism Bihor Association and involves the lighting of several buildings in the city in blue, including the Regina Maria Theater.

No, it's no joke: on April 1st, we celebrate not one, but two talented colleagues. We're talking about actors Adela Lazăr and Petre Ghimbășan.

Happy New Year!

We wish them a beautiful anniversary with their loved ones, good health and strength to work.

Today we celebrate the legendary actor of the Oradea Theater, Mr. Ion Abrudan, on his 26th birthday, as he says, over 50. We wish him good health and strength to work, and to delight us for many more years!

Happy New Year!

At the end of the performance BAREFOOT IN THE PARK, his colleagues and the audience sang "Long live the master", and the master answered us with a monologue funny, which was applauded on the open stage.

The Regina Maria Theater joins the Oradea City Hall, Eurobusiness Parc Oradea, the two NGOs and the private companies involved in the project started by the Double Tree by Hilton hotel, Earth Hour Oradea. The event will take place tomorrow, March 29, 2014, between 8:30 PM and 9:30 PM and will be marked by the switching off of architectural lighting in several areas of the city. For one hour, the Regina Maria Theater will also switch off the building's exterior lights. During this time, in Union Square, the organizers will create a map of the Earth and the event's logo, made of candles.

Earth Hour is celebrated every year on the last Saturday of March, since 2007. On this day, organizers and participants everywhere try to raise awareness about the negative effects that the consumption of natural resources has on the planet. In this regard, in all areas of the world, people, public institutions and private companies are urged to turn off their lights and get involved in actions to protect and improve the environment.

Friday, March 28, 2014, Mircea Diaconu will be present in Oradea to promote the novel When winter comes to us, recently published, in a revised edition, in the "Fiction Ltd." collection of Polirom Publishing House, also available in digital edition.

Actor and writer Mircea Diaconu embarked on a tour to promote this volume, meeting with readers and holding public readings in Bucharest, Brăila, Braşov, Gura Humorului, Iaşi, Piatra Neamt, Cluj, Oradea.

Seen through the eyes of a child, life seems more beautiful. And if the kid living in a village during the haunting decade becomes the narrator-character of a novel, the tragedy of the era is canceled out by the comic situations created by the naivety of his perspective.

World Theatre Day – March 27, 2014

International Message

„"Wherever there is a human society, the uncontrollable Spirit of the Spectacle also manifests itself.".

Under the trees of small villages and on high-tech stages in globalized cities; in school halls, fields and temples; in slums, urban squares, community centers and renovated basements, people are drawn together to experience a sense of communion in the ephemeral theatrical worlds we create to express our human complexity, our diversity, our vulnerability, in flesh and blood, in breath and voice.

The performances of the Iosif Vulcan Troupe can also be seen in Zalău.

This week, at the request of the Zalău Local Council, part of the artistic team of the Regina Maria Theatre will travel to Sălaj County for a performance of the show "8 Women". The show will take place at the Zalău Trade Unions' Culture House tomorrow, Thursday, March 20, 2014, at 6:00 p.m.

We look forward to seeing you, friends from Zalău!
