A special project of the TERRITORIЯ and the Centre for Healthy Youth Charity Foundation is a rare but gaining in these latitudes momentum practice called ‘social theatre’. Several people that due to the Centre for Healthy Youth rehabilitation programs got rid of all sorts of fatal addictions are brought together with a group of contemporary theatre personalities to speak about difficult path of rescue with their own words in an artistic form.
Living Spaces
A special TERRITORIЯ ’s project that continues to explore the laws of interaction between theatrical action and the space in which it exists. This year, three author’s teams are ‘landed’ in three different museums where, with just a few days of rehearsals, the teams will prepare especially for the festival sketches of performances that reflect the essence of that frozen-in-time museum space.
