Les Kurbas Theatre

The Les Kurbas Lviv Academic Theater was founded in 1988 by Volodymyr Kuchynsky and a group of young actors who, like the outstanding Ukrainian director Les Kurbas and his colleagues in 1918, felt the need to create a theater. Many of those younger actors previously performed at the Maria Zankovetska Theatre in Lviv. Oleh Mykhailovych Tsyona has been the artistic director of the Les Kurbas Theatre since 2019. Since its founding, the Les Kurbas Theater has grown into a well-respected theater group, both in Ukraine and abroad. Performances at the theater including: "Garden of Unthawed Sculptures" by Lina Kostenko; "Grateful Herod" and "Narcissus" by Hryhoriy Skovoroda; "Between Two Forces" by Volodymyr Vynnychenko; "In the Field of Blood," "Johanna, Herod's Wife," and "Apocrypha" by Lesia Ukrainka; "Dreams" and "Zabavy dlya Fausta" by Fyodor Dostoevsky; "Praise to Eros" and "Silenus Alcibiadis" by Plato; "Marco the Cursed or Oriental Legend" by Vasyl Stus; and "Waiting for Godot" by Samuel Beckett winning honors at numerous international theater festivals.
