FOUR PREMIERES COMING SOON AT THE REGINA MARIA THEATRE
After the short holiday break, here we are in full creative fever: The Regina Maria Theater is preparing no less than four premieres that will take place starting in May. Thus, the Iosif Vulcan Troupe is repeating two shows: “End of the Game” by Samuel Beckett, directed by Emil Sauciuc (with a cast consisting of Petre Ghimbăşan, Şerban Borda, Tiberiu Covaci and Mirela Niţă-Lupu) and “Phantom Pains” by Vasilii Sigariov, directed by Bogdan Huşanu (with Alexandru Rusu, Pavel Sîrghi and Mihaela Gherdan).
At Arcadia Troupe we are preparing a surprise for young and old alike: an adaptation of Ion Creangă's fairy tale, "The Goat with Three Kids", directed by Daniel Vulcu. The surprise consists of a special appearance by the beloved Oradea magicians, Eduard and Bianca.
The members of the Crişana Professional Artistic Ensemble are not left behind either, so they are also preparing a premiere show: a "Concert In Memoriam Elisabeta Pavel", to pay due homage to this emblem of Bihor folk music.
