The amateur theatre has a respectable tradition of more than a century in our environment. We build on tradition and purposefully develop and support the area of the non-professional theatre, we cooperate with theatre amateurs in the region - theatre ensembles, youth theatres, children's theatres and theatres of adults playing for children. Every year we organize competitions for them, for children - MY SME MALÍ DIVADELNÍCI, for young people - KARVAŠOVA BYSTRICA and TAJOVSKÉHO DIVADELNÉ DNI for adults. Methodological and instructional activities, education, workshops, which we carry out for theatre amateurs, also bear fruit in the form of good placements at competition shows, and several ensembles regularly represent our region at the national level.
Our flagship is an inspiring festival with international participation DIVADELNÁ CHALUPKA organized in Brezno since 2004, which expands the possibilities of cultural activities with a broad audience in Horehronie and Pohronie, and which we support and maintain theatrical traditions in the region.
