Bu-Ba-Bu
Bu-Ba-Bu is a literary performance group founded on April 17, 1985 in Lviv by three Ukrainian writers Yuri Andrukhovych, Viktor Neborak, and Oleksandr Irvanets.[1] The group's three syllables stand for "burlesque, balagan, and buffonada".[2] The idea behind the group's formation was in order to present a carnival like interpretation of events in Ukraine.
The first public evening of Bu-Ba-Bu took place in late 1987 in Kyiv. The period of the most active activity of Bu-Ba-Bu (23 concert poetry evenings) was 1987–1991.
The apotheosis of Bu-Ba-Bu was the Vyvykh-92 festival in 1992 (youth festival of alternative culture and non-traditional genres of art in Lviv). The brightest part of the festival were four performances of 1–4 October 1992, poetry opera Chrysler Imperial by Bu-Ba-Bu (directed by S. Proskurnia).
In 1995, the first joint book of bubabists Bu-Ba-Bu. T.v.o.[…]ry was printed in the publishing house "Kamenyar".
In 1996, the Chrysler Imperial (Thursday-6) print project effectively ended the "dynamic period" of Bu-Ba-Bu's existence.
