Filters

The filters are organized based on the content hierarchy, prioritizing the arrangement of filters according to their significance. This structure is formed by insights gathered from theater industry professionals, ensuring that the most crucial filters are placed prominently for user convenience and relevance. And users can sort the filter results by title, playwright last name, country name and date of publication.

This user interface design encourages users to refine their search based on multiple criteria, ensuring an intuitive and responsive journey ultimately elevating the user experience on the website.
