Natalia Dukova was selected as casting director for the first two days of auditions for the children’s and teen series "Talent Academy" and the reality show "I’m Becoming a Star" Brief introduction: Natalia Dukova is an actress, director and playwright of plays for children and adults. While still a student, she gained experience at National Television and later joined the company of the L. Kabakchiev Theatre in Kazanlak. She has been writing for 8 years. Her latest original production, "Silent Thoughts", recently premiered on the Salza i Smyah chamber stage. Her debut book, "Dukovisms", is also due to be published. The form of most texts in it is difficult to define: they could be described as short monodramas or poetic prose. For a year she has been holding literary readings presenting this particular genre. They are arranged as small performances, compilations of different excerpts grouped around selected themes. Working with children and young people became her forte after she took on the responsible post of event manager at a popular children’s entertainment centre in the capital, where she stages plays and organises and hosts events for the youngest children and their parents alike.
