The discussion is held by Divadelní noviny in cooperation with the Divadlo International Theatre Festival.

Hosted by Jana Machalická

What does the future hold for informed writing about theatre in printed daily papers? Have gloomy times come for art criticism as part of a broader erudite reflection on the state of cultural life? Why do editors in chief and publishers show no interest in such reflection? Will printed journals and magazines survive, or is their online version the only viable one? What is the response of relevant academies and universities to the general disinterest in art criticism?
