Season with new features at the Regina Maria Theater
The Regia Maria Theater team begins the 2019-2020 season with fresh forces, lots of positive energy and artistic projects that will take place in several spaces in the city.
The program of performances begins in September and resumes some of the most recent productions from the previous season, as well as theatrical performances beloved by the audience, exponents of all types of dramatic genre. Until the completion of the modernization works of the stage at the Great Hall, carried out through the project "Romanian-Hungarian cross-border incubator for performing arts", financed under the Interreg VA Romania-Hungary program, the performances of the Regina Maria Theater will take place at the Arcadia Hall, the Trade Unions' Culture House, the Oradea State Philharmonic, the "Florica Ungur" Hall and on the Mobile Stage located in the Oradea Citadel.
The performances of the Iosif Vulcan Troupe will generally start at 7:00 PM, except for those that will take place on the Mobile Stage located in the Oradea Citadel, which will start at 9:00 PM, and the show "Avalanșa", which will take place on October 20, at the "Florica Ungur" Hall, at 8:00 PM. After this performance, the show "Avalanșa" will be performed on October 23 at the Odeon Theater in Bucharest, as part of this year's edition of the National Theater Festival.
The Arcadia Band's performances will be played exclusively at the Arcadia Hall and will start at 11:00 AM.
Come laugh, rebel and get excited at shows you already love or have been eagerly awaiting! The first weekend of September is marked by the most recent show staged at the Regina Maria Theater: THE SOUND OF MUSIC, a charming musical that paves the way for a magical journey into the realm of childhood. The children who play in the show form two casts, so we invite you on both September 6 and 7, from 7:00 PM, at the Trade Unions' House of Culture.
Another recent show that has sparked positive reactions since its premiere is the political comedy "...ESCU", a timeless picture of political life in Romania, with funny and at the same time meaningful moments, which will take place on Tuesday, September 24, also at the Trade Unions' Culture House, at 7:00 PM.
