Actor Lucian Iancu has passed away at the age of 84

Last night, actor Lucian Iancu, a great star of the Constanța stage and an undeniable name in the history of Constanța and national theater, passed away.

The Constanța State Theatre team stands by the grieving family and mourns the loss suffered by the artistic community in Constanța and the theatrical world.

Lucian Iancu performed over sixty roles on the Constanța stage, ranging from Ianke in Take, Ianke and Cadîr by Victor Ion Popa to Palaestrio in Miles Gloriosus by Plautus, directed by Silviu Purcărete, Agamemnon in Legends of the Atrides, directed by Silviu Purcărete, the Father in The Game of Life and Death in the Ash Desert, directed by Gheorghe Jora—broadcast by Romanian Television—Lunardo in The Boors by Carlo Goldoni, directed by Dominic Dembinski, Mr. Papillon in Rhinoceros by Eugène Ionesco, directed by Laurian Oniga, Jupân Dumitrache in A Stormy Night, directed by Gheorghe Jora, Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman, Ulysses in Penthesilea, directed by Cătălina Buzoianu, Dron in The Seagull by A.P. Chekhov, Gaev in The Cherry Orchard, Zorn in The Breakdown by Dürrenmatt, directed by Sorin Militaru, and many others.

The Constanța State Theatre has become a member of the European Theatre Convention

The Constanța State Theatre has recently become a member of the European Theatre Convention (ETC), the most extensive network of theaters in Europe.

The decision was made following a vote by the members of the ETC General Assembly, which took place recently in Liège, Belgium. Director Erwin Șimșensohn, the general manager of the Constanța State Theatre, attended the ETC Conference and General Assembly at the invitation of the ETC Board.

This milestone is particularly significant for the Constanța theater, as Romania has been represented in the ETC until now by only three national theaters, from Craiova, Timișoara, and Cluj-Napoca. Thus, the Constanța State Theatre becomes the first Romanian theater without formal “national theater” status to be invited into this elite theatrical community.

Spectators who purchased tickets for these performances will be refunded either directly to their account for online purchases or at the Ticket Office. Those who explicitly choose to keep their tickets will be assigned the same seats for the rescheduled premiere dates.

Additionally, as compensation for the inconvenience caused, all ticket holders for the canceled performances will receive a free invitation to any other show in the program for the coming months, subject to seat availability.

We apologize for this situation and thank you for your continued support!
