Echo Lubimovka LA Welcomes SKENE Creative Media as a Media Partner
We’re excited to welcome SKENE Creative Media as a media partner of Echo Lubimovka LA 2026.
SKENE is a global performing arts magazine and creative platform dedicated to theatre, dance, opera, performance design, and interdisciplinary storytelling. Through interviews, reviews, essays, behind-the-scenes features, and artist stories, SKENE documents contemporary performance, amplifies the voices of the people creating it, and fosters dialogue across cultures and artistic communities.
At the heart of SKENE’s mission is a simple but powerful idea: live performance may be ephemeral, but the work — and the people behind it — deserve to be seen, documented, and remembered.
This vision strongly resonates with Echo Lubimovka LA.
Our festival brings contemporary Russian-language drama into a new cultural and linguistic environment, connecting playwrights, directors, actors, theater professionals, and audiences in Los Angeles.
Through our partnership with SKENE, we’re able to extend that conversation beyond the festival stage and introduce our artists, their stories, and their work to a broader international performing arts community.
We’re delighted to have SKENE alongside us for Echo Lubimovka LA 2026 and look forward to building this collaboration together.
