The punk play Harila wins an award in Belarus


The translation into Russian of Helmut Kuhl's (aka René Levínský) dark comedy Harila about German punks abducting a gorilla from a Zoo, was awarded an Honorable Mention at the Third International Free Theatre Competition. The competition is organized by the underground and political Free Theatre in Belarus, among the organisers we find the name of the theatre's co-founders Natalya Kolyada. The panel had to choose from almost three hundred plays from around the world, and the winning entry was a play Polustanok by Alexej Sherbak from Latvia.
