About the show

"The Witch of Konotop" in Horgen / Zurich

The Horgen performance is a meeting with contemporary Ukrainian theater that speaks directly. Directed by Ivan Uryvskyi and created in Kyiv in 2023 at the Ivan Franko National Academic Drama Theater, the production brings a classic story into today's questions.

Folklore and mysticism serve as a language for a conversation about fear, choice, and responsibility. Minimalist scenography, light, and sound create a tense space, while the acting holds attention to the finale.

Starts at 16:00, a convenient time for a daytime cultural outing.

Why you should see it

• A strong directing concept with a modern focus.
• A blend of folklore, mysticism, and contemporary meaning.
