MAIN PROGRAMME: BULGARIAN SELECTION

Selector: Kamelia Nikolova, theatre researcher

AGAIN ABOUT HUMANITY

The focus of my selection are, first and foremost, performances that: 1) look at topics and cases related to the need of humanity in today’s world, to the opportunities for a dialogue and understanding among people, among different communities and cultures; 2) offer, artistically and with a high level of professionalism, an intellectual and emotional entertainment reaffirming the permanent human values, and 3) demonstrate the power and inexhaustibility of human creativity by vivid and effective quests and experiences in the field of theatrical language and dialogue with the spectator. In short: I would like to outline the profile of a theatre for which humanity is again in the centre of this century.
