Around 12 foreign art troupes from countries with advanced stage performances were invited to the event and nine troupes have accepted the invitation.

So far, the art troupes from India, China, Spain and Sweden have registered five works at the festival. Vietnam will only have five works at the maximum.

In addition, there will also be unofficial shows for audiences to make their own assessments and seminars for authors and correspondents to comment on each drama.

Foreign dramas will have Vietnamese subtitles, according to the organising board.
