Today, theatrical performances can be seen in the most unexpected places - even in a museum. But when the exhibition becomes a stage and the audience becomes co-participants, a unique experience is born. This lecture is a rare chance to peek behind the scenes of the museum, where true citizen theater lives. Modern theater is increasingly stepping beyond classic stages. It can be found in libraries, factories, buses - and, of course, in museums. But why does a museum even need theater? Are exhibitions, objects, and texts not enough to tell about the past and present? Strangely enough, theater can do this deeper, more emotionally, and closer. The lecture "Why Does a Museum Need Theater?" at the House of Kachki is not just a reflection on a trendy phenomenon, but a firsthand account. The speaker Irina Lyadova is the curator of the theatrical platform of the Museum of History of Yekaterinburg. Where to go with a child in Yekaterinburg, look for on our website.
