In 1990, he received the first UNITER Award for the show Unchiul Vanea, produced at the National Theater in Craiova, in 2011 the show Unde-i revolverul?, produced at TVR, received the UNITER Award for the best TV theater show, and in 2010 he received the UNITER Award for his entire activity.

He is an honorary member of the "Marin Sorescu" National Theater in Craiova, of which he was the general director in the period 2000-2016.
"He fully proved it in his best show - and one of the best shows I've ever seen, and not only in Romania -, a show that contributed decisively to the enrollment of the National Theater in Craiova in the foreground of the domestic scenes in the turbulent years of the late 1980-90 decade: Uncle Vanea by Anton Pavlovic Chekhov. A show of extraordinary strength and beauty, a show in which I, for one, understood for the first time (after some seniority in the profession, however) why the sublime Russian author called his plays comedies..."
