Each year, the Herzegovinian town of Trebinje gathers the finest amateur theatre groups from across the former Yugoslavia for its Festival of Festivals. Running since 1957, daily performances and awards fill the calendar, in a cultural highlight of Eastern Herzegovina that has long celebrated the art of community drama.
