Antique Drama '' Stobi ''

 

There is no better place to hold a festival devoted to the antique drama than the stage that derives from Antiquity. Each year during the summer, the ancient stage of Stobi is a home of plays written by the most famous antique playwrights. Since 2001, this stage has hosted the international festival of antique drama. Between the illuminated walls of the amphitheatre the actors revive well-known texts of antique heroes thus enabling a spectacle for the viewers who, due to the ancient ambiance, feel as if they are a part of that period.

 

Except for plays by authors such as Aristotle, Aeschylus, Sophocles, Aristophanes and others, guest theatre companies from other countries give performances, specially created for this stage. Traditionally, awards are given for best play, best director and best actors.
