Ten days of FITS Talks with Marius Chivu

For the fourth consecutive year, writer Marius Chivu returns with the FITS Talks interview series, a project that has already become a tradition within the festival. Every day during FITS, some of the most appreciated Romanian artists attending the event are invited to a relaxed conversation about theatre, the festival, but also about their own artistic visions, passions, and personal joys. At the end of each dialogue, a unique questionnaire gives the audience the opportunity to get to know the guests in a different, perhaps even surprising light. FITS Talks is broadcast daily LIVE on the Festival's Facebook page at 1:00 p.m., and is subsequently available on the official YouTube channel. FITS Talks interviews can be watched for free.
