Romania’s leading stage director, born in 1950. At Romania’s Sibiu International Theatre Festival, one of Europe’s big three theatre festivals, Purcarete’s large-scale, spectacular version of “Faust” and his outdoor, pool-based “Metamorphoses” draw attention as the annual highlights of the event. He has been invited to numerous festivals around the world including Edinburgh, Avignon, Melbourne, and Montreal. In France Purcarete has been decorated as Chevalier des Arts at des Lettres by the French government and in Romania he has been awarded the Order of the Star of Romania. His theatre awards include the Critic’s Prize at the Edinburgh Festival, the Peter Brook prize, and the Dublin Festival Critics Award.
