Recommendations |
The director Vlad Mugur, whom I worked with at Hamlet by W. Shakespeare, said the following about me: 'Take care of her. She is a great actress! (...) I have had the honor to work with the greatest actors of our country. Aura Buzescu invited me to join her husband and see Elena before an opening night. I have seen and worked with great talents. But I have never seen something like this before. What Elena Ivanca has is pure talent.'
