Exhibitions

On December 1, 2024, at 16:00, the National Theatre Museum will open a new exhibition in the Foyer of the "Ion Caramitru" Hall dedicated to Édouard de Max (1869 - 1924), an internationally renowned Romanian actor and member of the prestigious Comédie-Française.

The exhibition focuses on the life and career of Édouard de Max, recognized for his innovative approaches and unconventional style, who made a remarkable contribution to the Parisian theatre scene during the Belle Époque.

The exhibition will give visitors the chance to discover one of the costumes worn by the actor during his official tour in Bucharest in 1904, when he played Hamlet, as well as vintage photos.

Following the opening, the public is invited to participate in a guided tour of the exhibition "Regina Maria at the Theatre", organized within the project "Innovative exhibition with restored cultural assets from the TNB Museum collection", funded by the EEA Grants 2014-2021, RO-CULTURA Program (www.muzeultnb.ro). The exhibition presents stage costumes and objects belonging to great Romanian actors, recently restored and exhibited in the new space dedicated to the museum, inaugurated on March 27, 2023, on the occasion of the World Theater Day. The main attraction is the train dress that once belonged to Queen Maria of Romania, and the exhibition is complemented by interactive, visual and auditory elements.

Access is free.
