Production internship is the moment when theory transforms into true art! Third-year students majoring in 026 Performing Arts at the Faculty of Culture and Creative Industries of KNUTD continue to conquer the professional stages of Ukraine. On February 15, 2026, a landmark event took place at the Mukachevo Drama Theater: the premiere of the revived play based on the classic masterpiece by I. Nechuy-Levytsky, "The Kaidash Family."

Our university takes special pride in the participation of our Bachelor students — Oleksii Vakhliovskyi and Nazarii Liubashenko. As students of the creative workshop led by Professor Lev Somov, these young actors demonstrated an exceptional level of professional training and stage mastery.

The director of the play, the prominent master of the stage Ivan Voityuk, along with the theater management represented by the Artistic Director Yuriy Hleba, highly commended the performance of our students. The official letter of appreciation stated:

"The actors demonstrated a high level of professional skills and have earned the right to perform in this production on a regular basis throughout the season."

This is a significant achievement! From now on, Oleksii and Nazarii will take the professional stage as full-fledged members of the theater's acting ensemble.

The letter also expressed heartfelt congratulations to the mentors who help young talents unlock their potential. Sincere gratitude was extended to the Head of the Department, Vira Burnazova, and the Dean of the Faculty, Iryna Trusova. Their unwavering support and professional guidance are shaping the future of Ukrainian theater today!

We are incredibly proud of our students and wish them endless inspiration, thunderous applause, and many more exciting roles to come!
