Ukrainian Shakespeare Festival in Ivano-Frankivsk

The Ukrainian Shakespeare Festival in Ivano-Frankivsk was launched and held for the first time on June 17-23, 2024. The festival is organized by the Ivano-Frankivsk National Academic Drama Theater named after Ivan Franko.

The Ivano-Frankivsk Shakespeare Festival is the first and only Shakespeare festival in Ukraine. The theater team has been working on the festival for more than five years, and today we could not accept that the war has crossed out our plans.

Our festival aims to draw the attention of the international community to Ukraine’s daily struggle for the dignity and values of the free world. We want our city to be heard on the artistic map of the world. We strive to convey that the role of art in times of disaster is not to create deceptive illusions, but to work attentively, sensitively and responsibly with social traumas and phobias, to work with the consequences of war to form the value foundations of future development. Ukrainian Shakespeare is always about struggle and always about finding answers to complex existential questions of a person and a nation.

The first festival featured performances by leading Ukrainian theaters from Kyiv and Lviv, as well as productions by teams from Poland, Moldova, and Italy. The scientific and educational program, which took place in several locations in our city and included various interviews, workshops, presentations, discussions, exhibitions, lectures, and roundtables, was also important.
The Ukrainian Shakespeare Festival in Ivano-Frankivsk brought together renowned Shakespeare scholars from the UK, Poland, the Czech Republic, Romania, and the USA, as well as theater scholars, art reviewers, and critics from all over Ukraine.
