Director Statement

«Yellow continent» portal:
«The theatre of Oleksii Kolomiytsev is a surgical table, where the consciousness of audience is laid bare, cynically, dispassionately and without anesthesia. You need to be a masochist in some ways, in order to watch the shows of Kolomiytsev. So you might say that for those who got used to musicals, ballet and opera his experiments are dangerous…»

Hanna Antonovich, a journalist:
«I haven’t felt such pain after watching a play in a long time. In fact, Kolomiytsev tells the truth - there are still tryings to make Ukraine a garbage dump, where ‘red (communistic) pants’ don’t want to give its place to the new day.»

Olga Dovgan-Levitska, a theatre expert:
«The director Kolomiytsev is a resilient misanthropeand a fan of killing himself.»
