Summary/Abstract: Marta Kacwin's review of the Lesh Kurbas 3rd Festival of Young Ukrainian Directors (Kiev, 26.09 – 2.10.2014) focuses on what the author feels were the two most interesting plays: Lena by Tamara Trunowa and Diploma by Sashka Brama. Kacwin states that the reduction of stage props and the questioning of realism in the productions described are an attempt to revolutionize the model of theater that reigns in Ukraine. She does confess, however, that in spite of some interesting ideas, the directors did not manage to create good plays.
