Theatre fellows complete their journey at GITIS

For six inspiring weeks, our InteRussia theatre fellows — actors from Argentina, Brazil, Cuba, Mauritania, South Africa, Tunisia, India, and China — immersed themselves in the creative world of Russian theatre.

Under the guidance of GITIS professors, they refined their skills in voice, movement, and stage performance, embracing the discipline and artistry that define the Russian acting tradition.

What else happened over these six weeks?

Meetings with theatre professionals, who shared personal insights
Exploring Moscow’s theatre world through visits to the Bolshoi Theatre, Moscow Musical Theatre, and the Moscow Art Theatre
Cultural immersion into Moscow’s history and traditions
Final performance as a poetic culmination of their journey, inspired by Alexander Ostrovsky’s The Thunderstorm

For many, it was more than just a professional program — it was a transformative journey through art, culture, and human connection.

As Konstantin Stanislavsky once said: “Love the art in yourself, not yourself in the art.” And that is exactly what our fellows have learnt to do!

The InteRussia fellowship in theatre arts is implemented by the Mezhdunarodniki Autonomous Non-Profit Organisation in cooperation with the Gorchakov Fund, GITIS, TV BRICS, within the framework of the New Generation program of Rossotrudnichestvo and with the support from the Presidential Grants

Foundation.
