Zagreb Youth Theatre (venue for the majority of PSi#15 shifts)
www.zekaem.hr
Teslina 7, Zagreb

Founded almost sixty years ago, Zagreb Youth Theater / ZYT (Zagrebačko kazalište mladih, ZKM) has long been an integral and essential part of the history of the Croatian stage. With its own remarkable history spanning half a century, the Theater has undergone a number of artistic and organizational mutations, changing names and bases, while constantly attracting new generations of theater artists, as well as those theatergoers who favor the kind of theater which readily oversteps conventional lines. ZKM’s projects are author-centered, examining, formulating and expressing ideas at work in a specific social, civil and political reality. In its eagerness to engage the authentic dramas of this day and age, the Zagreb Youth Theater remains open to a broad range of aesthetic approaches. Since September 2006, ZKM has hosted and organized Zagreb’s annual World Theater Festival.
In addition to the main Zagreb Youth Theater building, the conference program will also take place in its auxiliary theater studios located just around the corner (Učilište ZKM). See map for details.
Halls, studios and rooms in the main building of ZYT / ZKM: Istra, Miško Polanec, Poli, Rehearsal Room, Studio 1, Studio 2

Student Center of the University of Zagreb

Savska 25, Zagreb

Zagreb’s Student Centre was founded in the mid-20th century and is situated in the very heart of the city. In 2005, the Center undertook to revitalize and reorganize its cultural orientation, in terms of both structure and content. In the spirit of its new “Culture of Change” policy, the SC’s re-tooled cultural program has since managed to give the Center a prominent spot on the cultural map of Zagreb.

Cinema “Europa”

This 505-seat movie theater, the oldest and the most beautiful in Zagreb, is located at Varšavska 3, in the very center of the city.

Opening Event Venue

Croatian National Theatre

Trg maršala Tita 15, Zagreb

The Neo-Baroque edifice of the Croatian National Theater (Hrvatsko narodno kazalište, HNK) in Zagreb is surrounded by a number of buildings of great monumental value, representative of late 19th / early 20th century Croatian architecture. The project was commissioned from famous Viennese architects Ferdinand Fellner and Herman Helmer, who had built more than forty theaters in Europe. After only 16 and half months of construction works, the theater building was finished on schedule and unveiled with great pomp by Austro-Hungarian Emperor Francis Joseph I. With a single reconstruction in the 1960s, which preserved all the basic parameters of the original project and the original functionality of the interior, the theater building has served as an emblematic “home” to Croatian theater for more than a hundred years, with three national companies: Drama, Opera and Ballet.
