The Beam Club >History > PKDS
In 2013, during the summer holidays, we reconstructed the premises of the Lúč Club to make it as versatile as possible for all types of productions, but especially for the needs of the performing arts and on 14.9.2013 we established the First Chamber Theatre Scene in Trenčín (PKDS). From our own resources and with the help of a public collection, we managed to build the first professionally equipped blackbox theatre space in Trenčín. PKDS in Trenčín was also the home stage of the Dogma Theatre (formerly the Kolomaž Theatre) and provided a space for the performance of domestic and foreign theatre ensembles. In the premises of PKDS in 2013-2015 we also participated in the pan-European project NIGHT OF THEATRES. In 2015, as part of the Night of Theatres, we organized a two-day event celebrating 20. anniversary of the Kolomaž Theatre, which mapped the history of the oldest active theatre association in the territory of the City of Trenčín. After having to move out of the premises of the Lúč Club due to the complex reconstruction of the Hviezda cinema, PKDS defacto ceased to exist. We believe it will find its place in the planned Container Theatre.
