Lucia studied international relations and contemporary European history. She emigrated to the USA. After the fall of Communism she returned to the then Czechoslovakia and later spent twelve years in the university context of Cambridge (UK). She is involved in international relations through civic diplomacy. Lucia has been keen on theatre ever since her childhood. She made dream to become operatic diva come true while hoovering to the chagrin of her involuntary audiences. Hence, she turned her interest in opera into passive. That, however, didn’t affect her overall passion for theatre. On the contrary, she is increasingly actively involved in the world of theatre. In addition to translating Slovak stage works into English and librettos into Slovak, she is Managing Director at the Bridgin’ Drama. Meanwhile, she is waiting for the world to discover her operatic genius. ?

I have been following the Bridgin´ Drama theatre group since its very beginning. I admire their immense dedication to theatre, their appetite for cracking the Slovak classics and the spreading of their message in English so that it can reach the very widest audience.

Their efforts have firmly established the group as a key player in the theatre scene in Bratislava and their relentless enthusiasm in organising the Bridgin´ Europe Festival has cemented Slovakia’s reputation for outstanding drama across Europe.

Theatre Bridgin´ Drama is „definitely my cup of tea!”
