✨How many emotions can fit into a few dozen minutes on stage? During the Theater Studios Exhibition at Španělská 10, we experienced smiles, tears, and moments of complete silence in the auditorium.

We thank the students and lecturers for their diligence and patience, and everyone involved for their energy, which brings these stories to life again and again. A final big thank you [...]
