Dávid Paška is a Slovak theatre director working on the international stage. He graduated in theatre directing from the Max Reinhardt Seminar in Vienna (mdw – University of Music and Performing Arts Vienna).
Since completing his studies, he has systematically focused on classical and contemporary drama, adaptations of both well-known and forgotten works of world literature, and the development of interdisciplinary authorial projects with a distinctive directorial signature. He realises his projects in various countries, engaging in dialogue with differing political contexts and theatrical traditions, thereby shaping his own internationally presentable artistic poetics.
He has directed productions at Schauspielhaus Salzburg, the Radu Stanca National Theatre in Sibiu, the Slovak National Theatre in Bratislava, the Jan Kochanowski Theatre in Opole, La MaMa Experimental Theatre in New York, as well as in other European countries. He is a recipient of the Tatra Banka Foundation Award for Art – Young Creator.
