ancovaance@gmail.com Contemporary theater is the art form that most inspires me to look into personal and global issues. I am thrilled that Homo Novus introduces Latvian performing arts to new and impressive theatre forms, reflecting on current issues and challenging the status quo!
Ieva Briede
Producer
ieva@theatre.lv At a time when everything in the world revolves around money, power and vanity, it is not only pleasant but also very valuable to lose oneself in art and rediscover that there is something higher and more human.
Anna Dārziņa
Administrative director
anna@theatre.lv Homo Novus is mine and contemporary theater's firstborn, to be cared for, nurtured, admired, and proud of.

madara@theatre.lv Homo Novus is an opportunity to meet world-class artists, and not just from a distance, as the separation between life and art would seem to demand, but to be right there with them on stage, to discover your own city hand in hand with them, or to be invited to dance at one of the festival's unforgettable parties.

Santa Remere
Programme curator
santa@theatre.lv Homo Novus performances can throw you off balance and change your perspective; they can also wound you and leave you pondering for a long time, and the experience is both personal and unifying.

PR Manager
inga@theatre.lv I once told my husband that theatre is my life. I don't remember saying that. But when I think about it, Homo Novus has really been a part of my life and a theatre experience that has left its mark. Yes, sometimes it knocks you off your feet, but then you build yourself up again!
