Overview
DAH Theatre is the professional independent theatre company founded in Serbia in 1991. During 25 years of performing highly artistic and socially engaged performances and projects all over the world, we have been constantly fighting a battle to have a space where we can work. A month ago, we finally succeeded in finding a space but it needs to be adapted. Now we have to ask for your help because without vital conditions for work we can not continue creating and sharing our activities.

DAH Theatre is the first professional independent theatre company founded in Serbia in 1991, who have been effectively creating highly artistic and socially engaged performances and projects for a quarter of a century. In a country that suffered through war, embargoes, sanctions and bombing, our work has often proven to be a struggle, sometimes even dangerous.

Last year our City left us homeless.

"DAH Theatre is a processed-based theatre company, and it is their process that stands out and influences theatre makers around the world." - Del Hamilton (DAH Theatre: A Sourcebook, 2016)

We have always believed that our work is necessary and important, not only in Serbia, but also in the rest of the world. This year we received living proof for this when a book about our work was published:  DAH Theatre: A Sourcebook, edited by Dennis Barnett and published by Lexington Books, USA, 2016.

We found a new home!

For the past several years we have been constantly fighting a battle to have a space where we can perform both the artistic and the managerial aspects of our work. A month ago, we finally succeeded in finding a space – we moved into a wonderful new space that can accommodate our needs, in the very centre of Belgrade. The best news is that we signed a contract and that we can stay in the space for many years to come. It seems that DAH Theatre has finally found a home.

But our new space needs to be adapted (see specification below) and this is why we have to ask for your help. We can’t do this alone anymore. Every day we write applications for support, work on our current projects, plan future ones and create new performances.

We need your help in order to keep doing this for the next 25 years.

The renovation costs are € 15 000.
The impact of our work is priceless.

Is it a home without friends?

Help us to build a new home which can continue to be a hub for making connections, provoking, inspiring, and encouraging transformation all over the world; a home where we will be able to host you, our friends, visitors, collaborators. It could be an island of light in our city!

Besides donating money directly to our bank account, PayPal or by Moneygram, there are many other ways you can raise money to help us if you are willing to:

  • Organize a performance/concert/ exhibition, in your space/city and donate part of the funds from tickets to DAH
  • Use any manifestation that is already in your repertoire and donate part of the funds to DAH
  • Put the donation boxes during your programs so your audience can donate as well
  • Publicly announce that you are raising money for us and spread the word about our campaign via Facebook, or any other social network.

So far we did amazing things, now help us do the impossible!

Roof reparation - 6000€
The installation of electricity and water - 2000€
Wall Chiselling and smoothing - 1000€
Wall painting - 400€
Front door - 600€
Reconstuction of bathroom and tea-kitchen - 2000€
Furniting of offices - 1000€
Coolers/heaters (AC)  - 1000 €
Web site redesign - 1000€

If we don’t reach the goal, all the collected funds will go to the roof reparation that is the most urgent. If we collect more that the predicted sum, all the rest will go to the renovation of the performing space.

We are hoping that we can count on solidarity of all of you, our theatre friends that know and follow our work. We also know that times are generally hard and that need for support is huge and we do understand if you can not support us now.  

But any donation would be of great help to us, we shall have one wall with all your names in our theatre. But the best would be that our theatre home would become theatre home for many artists in need and of course for all of you dear friends.

Thank you so much for your donations, effort and faith in DAH Theatre!

Yours DAH Theatre
Dijana, Maja, Ivana, Aleksandra and Natasa
