Having created the "Poetry Lovers Club", the theatrical studio expanded its activities. The participants of the "Club" are laureates of all-Ukrainian, region, city and University poetry contests.
In particular, the literary and artistic composition "Your Earth" became the laureate of the international competition "Golden Autumn" in Kyiv.
It was a good tradition to recite poetry not only in Ukrainian but also in German, as a testimony to our dear respect for our regular guests from Germany.
No holidays, concerts or scientific conferences go without the leading theater studio. Students often help University staff to write scripts, pick up material for reciting, costumes, and more.
Both general and individual classes are conducted, where students and any of the University staff can get knowledge of the basics of acting, stage design, and ethics of conduct on the stage.
All of our enthusiasts can enter our artistic family. The main thing is to love theater, artistic word and intellectual communication.
