Markov: for 30 years the festival "White Vezha" has become one of the most significant theatrical events in Belarus

For 30 years, the International Theatre Festival “White Vezha” has not just taken place, but has become one of the most significant theatrical events in Belarus. This was stated by Minister of Culture Marat Markov at the opening ceremony of the anniversary forum in Brest.

XXX "White Vezha" is held from 10 to 19 September under the motto "White Vezha - 30 years together!" The gold fund of the festival”. The anniversary program involves 31 teams from 11 countries. For ten days, the festival will unite different theater schools, genres and national traditions, and new works will be presented, including teams that have already become its laureates.

- Over the years, “White Vezha” has not just taken place – it has truly become one of the most significant theatrical events of our country. The Thirty Year Festival is symbolic in its own way. The anniversary program brings together 30 collectives and productions from different countries. This is a large-scale international forum that brings together artists and spectators on one platform, gives an opportunity to see different theatrical traditions and once again convinces that art is able to talk to people in a common language, Marat Markov said.

- Thirty years is just a child's age for the festival. We all hope that White Vezha will live forever, continue to unite theaters, open new productions to the audience and remain a meeting place for talented stage masters.

The International Theatre Festival “White Vezha” has been held in Brest since 1996. Over three decades, it has brought together artists from more than 60 countries, and 770 performances were presented at its venues. XXX International Theatre Festival "White Vezha" solemnly opened in Brest
