english information

Our monthly is entitled Kontramarka. It is not a simple admission ticket be bought at the cashdesk as usual but a pass card given by actors, directors, managers to their friends. And after the performance the owners of these cards visit the wings — the dressing rooms to thank, to have a chat, to speak about their impressions. Because they are the friends of The Theatre — both newcomers and great theatregoers.
And this way Kontramarka acts.The magazine does not pretend the role of serious critics but about the professions and professionals at the theatre — directors, tailors, hairstylists, joiners, ballet dancers, attendants, scene shiflers, painters, playwriters, set designers, prompters, chief-make-up artists, fly men, extras, stage carpenters and sleeping fireman.
Opera houses, drama theatres, experimental and avantguarde ones, puppet show theatres are represented in our issue. We describe the anniversary celebrations, the openings, festivals with a help of professional journalists and art students, common spectators and headmasters of the renowned troupes in our country and abroad.
It covers national and international theatrical news.
We can tell you about  the childhood spent at the dramatic society or army and navy services of our coryphaeus and stage stars, «lackeys and guards».
The magazine has it s own original texts and photoes — especially for Kontramarka.
