The Yugoslav Drama Theatre is part of the educational project of the Union of Theatres in Europe for 2026 – UTE ACADEMY – which is participated in by the young actors and actresses of the UTE member theatres.
Within the framework of the project, which will be held in different European cities and UTE member theatres, workshops and masterclasses will be organized. The YDT’s actresses Marta Bogosavljević and Hristina Tatić are participants in the project. Apart from the Serbian actresses, young talents from Spain, Italy, Luxembourg, Greece, Bulgaria, and Slovenia are also taking part in the project.
The first stage of the project began on February 2nd at the Teatro di Roma.
