The Romanian Centenary Celebration programme continues this October with ‘Ecaterina Teodoroiu‘, a brilliantly woven story and a fascinating new show inspired by the life of one of the most loved figures in Romanian history and the only female soldier who fought on the Romanian fronts in the Great War. Employing a strong cast of Romanian actors living and working in London, director Liana Ceterchi gives life to yet another compelling feminine character, one that complements her already famous Zelda Fitzgerald, Vivien Leigh, Charlotte Salomon or, more recently, Ileana Princess of Romania. This performance was especially commissioned by the RCI for its theatrical space and follows ‘The Queen’s Wars’, a one woman show created by Immersive Theatre and inspired by Queen Marie of Romania’s wartime diaries.
