11th trinational theater festival in the border triangle of Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic

It has long since ceased to be an insider tip, but an integral part of cultural life in Zittau and beyond: The trinational theater festival J-O-Ś will again be performing on the stages of the Zittau Gerhart-Hauptmann-Theater from March 15th to 19th, 2023.

The two J-O-Ś partner theatres, the Teatr im. Cypriana Kamila Norwida from Jelenia Góra and Divadlo F. X. Šaldy from Liberec will be represented at the festival in Zittau with individual contributions, and with them many other large and small ensembles from Poland and the Czech Republic as well as artists from Ukraine. In addition, the theater youth will be represented with their own premiere at this year's festival.

Discover touching themes, unusual styles of acting, exciting concepts and new perspectives on theater from abroad in a very short time, while enjoying the international flair of the theater festival.

Multilingual surtitles and work introductions easily remove language barriers; a variety of events related to the performances round off the program. Welcome the world to Zittau together with us!
