Tea Tupajić

Tea Tupajić (Sarajevo, 1984) is a Croatian theatre and film director. Often engaging in long processes with invited protagonists who always seem to either be reluctant to be on stage or to have a lot to lose by doing so, she calls upon the force and depth of theatre to enter where language and other mediums cannot.

Her work has most recently been described as a “glacially paced journey into the world of darkness” (Modern Times Review, Nov 2021). 

Her work has been internationally presented and awarded. Her latest work, first feature length film Darkness There and Nothing More (2021), celebrated its world premiere at the IDFA Envision competition. Tea Tupajić is a published writer and has served as a guest editor for the performing arts magazine Frakcija.
