Prominent Bulgarian director Yavor Gardev has joined a long list of his colleagues supporting the antigovernment protests in the country.
After the end of a performance of Shakespeare's Hamlet, which he directed, Gardev has surprisingly stepped on the stage of the National Ivan Vazov Theater and has stated before the audience the following:
"I am Yavor Gardev. I want to say that we oppose the use of force against Bulgarian citizens and support the attempts to build a civil society."
The statement has been met by long-lasting, thundering applause.
