The 33rd Geochang International Theater Festival Holds Press Conference

From the 28th to August 11th

On the 13th, the Geochang Cultural Foundation in Gyeongnam held the '33rd Geochang International Theater Festival Press Conference' at the county office situation room, attended by about 30 local media representatives.

To ensure the successful hosting of the upcoming 33rd Geochang International Theater Festival, the Geochang Cultural Foundation held a preparation briefing on the 4th and a meeting with local cultural artists on the 6th. On this day, they held a meeting with local journalists to seek cooperation in publicity.

The 33rd Geochang International Theatre Festival press conference is being held.

This year’s Geochang International Theater Festival, under the theme "More Fun When You Know!", will feature a total of 82 performances by 54 groups.

The Geochang Cultural Foundation directly invited European performance teams to ensure high-quality shows. Notably, they prepared unique works that can only be seen abroad, such as "Deja Vu," the first domestic performance by Bodekker & Neander, disciples of German pantomime master Marcel Marceau, and the Belgian traditional royal puppet show "The Three Musketeers."

The opening performance will be the musical play "Chunhee," featuring about 100 cast members on a unique and spectacular underwater stage, creating grandeur and emotion. The underwater stage will be used as the stage for several performances during the festival to provide a distinctive experience and reduce costs.

Additionally, various side events enjoyable for all ages have been prepared for tourists visiting Suseungdae, including a world food corner, food trucks, a world folk experience center, and an LED photo zone.

Unlike last year, to facilitate ticket reservations for visitors, advance exchangeable tickets (pre-tickets) that can be exchanged for various performance admission tickets have been sold on a first-come, first-served basis since June, with 1,050 tickets sold out, showing great interest from many county residents.

Chairman Gu In-mo said, "I hope the 33rd Geochang International Theater Festival will be widely promoted, attracting many visitors to Geochang and becoming a festival that everyone can enjoy together."
