Majority of Thymeli theater performances will not see the stage
Only three out of the nine productions approved by the Thymeli Plan will be realized in the first semester of 2024 by the members of the Federation of Theatre Organizations. The Satirical Theatre and ETHAL are suspending their operations and not proceeding with any of their approved productions. The Dionysus Theatre will only stage one of the two approved productions. The Anemonas Theatre has decided to proceed with two productions. No premieres of the 29 approved new theatrical productions have taken place yet. The Federation of Theatre Organizations and actors’ unions have been unable to find common ground regarding modernizing the contract and adherence. The Federation sent proposals to the unions to find a solution, but the unions did not respond. As a result, six out of the nine approved productions cannot be realized based on the terms of the Plan and the allocated amounts.
