Estonian Theatre Festival Draama in Tartu to screen Draamateatre's 'Macbeth' recording

The Estonian Theatre Festival Draama, taking place in Tartu this September, will feature 13 productions in its main programme. The festival will also present a video recording of Draamateatre's production of 'Macbeth'.

The Estonian Theatre Festival Draama, held annually in Tartu, will this year include 13 productions in its main programme, organisers have announced. Alongside live performances, the festival will also screen a video recording of the Estonian Drama Theatre's acclaimed production of 'Macbeth'.

The Draama festival is one of Estonia's most prominent theatrical events, bringing together the country's leading theatre companies and productions each autumn in Tartu, Estonia's second-largest city. This year's edition continues that tradition, offering audiences a broad overview of contemporary Estonian theatre.

The inclusion of the Draamateatre 'Macbeth' video screening adds an archival dimension to the festival, allowing audiences to experience a notable production that may not be on the active repertoire. Video presentations of theatre productions have become an increasingly valued way of preserving and sharing significant stage works with wider audiences.
