The head of the Croatian National Theatre, Dubravka Vrgoc, and the head of the Albanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre, Zana Cela, signed a cooperation protocol in Zagreb on Tuesday.

The protocol will create good conditions for theatrical exchanges and help the two theatres to expand their artistic cooperation based on their shared interests, Vrgoc said.

Established in 1953, the Albanian National Opera and Ballet in Tirana is Albania’s largest theatre and one of the country’s biggest cultural symbols, Cela said.
