Biennale Theatre
The Venice Biennale's Theatre section, directed by Maurizio Scaparro, has planned its activity over a two-year period and around a single artistic theme: the Mediterranean. The first activity will be an International Theatre Workshop that will take place in Venice from October 27th to November 27, 2008. Many of the workshops scheduled in October-November will then be part –in their full and definitive version– of the 40th International Theatre Festival, that will run from February 20th to March 8th, 2009.
Biennale Theatre
International Theatre Workshop Maurizio Scaparro, the director of the Theatre section since 2006, has conceived Venice as a workshop-city devoted to contemporary theatrical reflections: through the use of open-air spaces, a natural scenery in the city squares (San Trovaso, San Maurizio, and Santa Maria Formosa); and in the Arsenale venues, that the Venice Biennale has made over the years a lively place for future creativity, not only theatrical. In the spaces of the past, the present is now set, and tradition is newly read with the eyes of contemporariness. Today, an Ariadne's thread made of water will reach from the middle of the lagoon to the Mediterranean, which is the artistic theme of the next activities of the Theatre section. Mediterraneo
The current program of the Venice Biennale's Theatre section is closely tied in to two features: the first, in October-November 2008, with an international training and specialisation workshop; the second, in 2009, with an International Theatre Festival to be held in February of that year. Both are associated with a single artistic theme: the Mediterranean.
