Carmina Burana sau forța destinului

Abstract

On the 60th anniversary of the founding of the Romanian section of the National Theatre (formerly known as the State Theatre) and the Studio Theatre of the University of Arts in Târgu-Mureș, we consider it s important to recall events that contributed to the development and evolution of the two institutions. Thus, this paper aims to highlight a unique moment of 2012, in the cultural space of Mures, namely the first choreographic theatre performance at the National Theatre in Tîrgu-Mureș. Under the baton of master choreographer Gigi Căciuleanu, the performance “Carmina Burana” by Carl Off was born, uniting the two theatre troupes (the Romanian and the Hungarian troupes) as well as students from the University of Arts. This creates a much stronger bridge between the two institutions, becoming partners to produce this performance. Along with the members of the two companies, students from the choreography and acting departments and two professional dancers joined us.
