Presentations on the research topic given during the course of the project
We consider it important to make our research result available for a broad audience. That is why we talked about the V4 collaboration and its topic, the musical theatre of the multilingual East-Central Europe, not just in the form of the website accessible to the public, databases and the virtual exhibition, but also during educational lectures and interviews on cultural radios. We also gave numerous conference papers in the topic.
