The first online forum of the UNDER 600 platform will be on January 31, 2025 at 6:00 p.m. The goal is to create a platform UNDER 600 for the independent theater sector in the Western Balkans. Štrih (Skopje, Macedonia), and its partners DAH Theater and Korifej Theater (Kolašin, Montenegro) facilitate networking and collaboration opportunities and promote independent theater productions to increase visibility and attract new audiences in the Western Balkans. Supported by the British Council. The title of the lecture will be: Under the microscope of sustainability: How to develop an independent theater for tomorrow, tomorrow and tomorrow.

The speakers will be: Biljana Radinoska - a theater director who runs an independent theater in and outside Macedonia, Petar Antevski, producer and president of the independent theater Presrt and Ivica Dimitrijević - an actor of the Macedonian National Theater who also has his own independent production.

On March 21 and 29, we are expecting two other onljan talks with regional artists. The platform will be presented in June at the ART AND HUMAN RIGHTS festival, DAH Teatra, from June 10 to 13, 2025.

The project was supported by the British Council.
