Love potion

Theatre on Podil Kyiv, Andreevsky Descent, 20-B

The play "Love Potion" is a modern Ukrainian fantasy by the Kapranov brothers, which will help you switch from routine and immerse yourself in the world of mysticism. On the stage of the Theater on Podil, a story unfolds about how state structures try to tame the otherworldly and use love magic for their own purposes.

When magic becomes a weapon

Sometimes you want to believe that mysticism is dissolved in our air, and Ukrainian women know a little more than they say. The plot revolves around two secret service agents who are tasked with putting magical powers at the service of the state. This is the perfect "anti-everyday" for those who are tired of ordinary dramas and want to see a mystical-comedy thriller with a twist. Here, passion and lust become instruments of influence, and a person is an obedient puppet in the hands of those who know the right spells.

Two hours to turn off the phone

Instead of endlessly scrolling through the news feed, you can choose an evening at the theater to breathe out and recharge. You will hear every note of the mystical atmosphere and see how trained agents succumb to a force that cannot be calculated by algorithms. This is a way to reduce stress levels and replenish your treasury of memories with something truly alive. Numotamo suggests: this is exactly the case when it is worth going out and allowing yourself a little magic in the middle of the work week.

How to plan your "anti-weekends"

If you are wondering where to go, the poster often offers standard options, but Serhiy Pavlyuk's production stands out for its irony and modern take on folklore. On the Numotamo.com website, it is easy to navigate the city's cultural events. In order not to postpone your vacation for later, it is better to book tickets now. Buying tickets is the first step to an evening where reality mixes with fantasy.

Theatre on Podil: history and a new look

The Kyiv Drama Theatre on Podil is conveniently located at Andriyivskyi Uzviz, 20-B, in the very heart of Kyiv. The building stands out from the rest, and that's normal: it's about art. The theatre opened in 1987. Since then, it has been managed by the People's Artist of Ukraine Vitaly Malakhov - he is the main inspiration there.

Do you remember the controversy over the new look? Yes, the building has been renovated, but this has not prevented the theatre from gathering its loyal fans. On the contrary - the number of friends of the theatre is growing every day. After all, it's about experience, not about walls, right?

Modern comfort for your rest

The main hall of the theater is ready to accommodate up to 253 people, and there is room for another 50 in the theater lounge. Do you want to get out into the world without worrying about the details? The theater has taken care of this: there is both sign language and audio description. This is not just unique for Kyiv, it is respect for each visitor.

The latest technologies are combined with minimalism here, so nothing unnecessary distracts from the event. The stage has become larger, made according to European standards. This means that you can see the actors clearly, and you can hear the sound as if they were next to you, without unnecessary clutter. All this attracts foreign groups as well - interesting guests often visit there.

What events await you at the theater?

The schedule of the Kyiv Drama Theater on Podil is always full of options to forget about everyday life. Here you will find more than 50 productions: both classics that you know by heart and modern plays that will make you think.

Sometimes you can come across nice bonuses: buy tickets at a special price or even get a second one for free. Follow the announcements, and Numotamo will help you not to miss these "anti-everyday" surprises.

The theater team is not just actors, they are people who raise important questions. Their work has repeatedly received recognition at world festivals, for example, in Edinburgh. This means that you will see a quality level that is appreciated far beyond Kyiv.

There are many famous names among the cast: Bohdan Benyuk, Timur Polyansky, Volodymyr Goryansky. In addition to performances, there are often concerts, interesting master classes and other creative events.
