“Antidote to Manipulation through Culture and Art”: a public interview with theatre director Vlad Troitskyi will be held at the Museum of Civilian Voices founded by Rinat Akhmetov Foundation

On April 9, a public interview with theatre director Vlad Troitskyi will take place. This conversation is organised as part of the documentary project “Diaries of the Civilians: Voices of those who survived and those who did not” by the Museum of Civilian Voices founded by Rinat Akhmetov Foundation. The event will take place at the Kyiv History Museum.
The topic of the conversation is “Antidote to Manipulation through Culture and Art”. The interview will be moderated by Nataliia Yemchenko, SCM Communications Director and member of the Supervisory Board of Rinat Akhmetov Foundation.
Vlad Troitskyi is a theatre director, playwright, founder of the GOGOLFEST festival, leader of the Dakh Daughters, Dakhabrakha, and Nova Opera music projects.
The conversation will focus on how art shapes the emotional defence of society and how to tell traumatic stories in a way that gives hope and not just records pain.
Other interview topics include:
– building a dialogue through values: how to find a common language between the home front and the frontline,
– why it is important not only to document trauma but also to build a history of the future,
– how the experiences of the Holocaust, the Holodomor and other historical tragedies can be used to draw lessons for the modern narrative.
