Artists had an in-depth talk on the development of theater, audiences' interest, theater studies and the employment status of people who majored in drama in China and CEEC countries.

"We expect to translate the classic dramas of China and CEEC countries. And establish a work studio to promote the collaboration. The translation should be based on an understanding and respect of each other's culture and tradition. We will choose some classic and contemporary works to show to the public, which will inspire us to create more new things," said Anna Galas-Kosil, a representative from Z. Raszewski Theatre Institute in Warsaw in Poland.

Representing the National Theater of China, Li Dong noted that it should be prudent when choosing dramas.

"It means we need to think about whether the productions we choose will be accepted by the Chinese audiences," Li said.
