The Mediterraneo Festival came to an end

The 40th International Theatre Festival came to an end on Sunday 8th March 2009. Around twenty new performances, from 20th February to 8th March, offered an overview of ancient myths and the contradictions of the present. The Festival, dedicated to the theme of the Mediterranean, was the final step of a program that had its first experimental phase in October and November 2008, with the International Theatre Workshop. After the Festival, the new pièce directed by Maurizio Scaparro, Polvere di Bagdad (Baghdad Dust), will be performed in 5th, 6th, 7th November 2009.

40th International Theatre Festival

The performances of the 40th International Theatre Festival (February 20th > March 8th) completed the two-year project that the Theatre section of the Venice Biennale, directed by Maurizio Scaparro, has dedicated to the theme of the Mediterranean. At the crossroads of a culture that is Latin, Arabic and Hebrew all together, the Venice Biennale once again offered itself as an ideal port.

The International Theatre Workshop

The International Theatre Workshop took place in Venice from October 27th to November 29th 2008, developing around the idea of theatre as a “construction site for art”, in which the works of tomorrow may take root and sediment, while offering the young and future artists an opportunity for an educational experience and a direct rapport within a research project.
