The hit play of the Novi Sad Theatre "Once Upon a Time in Novi Sad directed by András Urbán!
The play is subtitled in English.
A minority extravaganza filled with music, dance, ghosts, and even Native Americans! The setting is conceived as a theater within a theater, celebrating the anniversary of the venue with a special show program—essentially a festive blend of music and comedy—while revisiting performances that have marked the history of the Novi Sad Theatre. This serves as a foundation for Urban’s in-depth exploration of the reasons for engaging in theater, the relationship with the audience, the balance between activist and entertainment-driven theater, the roles of actors and directors (and their mutual tensions), and the dynamics of politics and power. Broader societal questions also emerge, such as the status of the Hungarian and the newly arrived Russian minority in Novi Sad, as well as the growing vulnerability of individuals due to the increasing societal influence of artificial intelligence.
