"The Witch of Konotop" is not just a play—it is a cultural phenomenon that leaves no one indifferent. A production based on the classic novella by Hryhorii Kvitka-Osnovianenko, which has shaken Ukrainian theatre and gained international impact.
Director Ivan Uryvskyi has boldly combined Ukrainian folklore, mysticism, and contemporary social conflicts, creating a deep and multi-layered work.
Premiered in Kyiv in 2023, at the Ivan Franko National Theatre, it addresses themes of faith, the power of women, superstitions, social pressure, and the global choice between Light and Darkness.
