Bitef

THEATRE WAS SIRED BY THE FESTIVAL. BITEF LIVED ITS LIFE IN ATELJE 212 DURING THE MONTH OF SEPTEMBER AND BITEF THEATRE WILL LIVE THE YEAR ROUND TO PRODUCE NEW PLAYS, BRING PRODUCTIONS FROM THE WORLD OVER, ORGANISE VARIOUS ACTIVITIES ON THE FRINGE OF DRAMATIC AND OTHER ARTS, FOUND A VIDEO THEATRE, HOLD INTERNATIONAL SEMINARS AND THEATRE WORKSHOPS. IN KEEPING WITH THE TRADITION, SEPTEMBER WILL STILL BE THE TIME OF THE FESTIVAL ITSELF AND THIS SEPTEMBER THE PERFORMERS FROM ALL OVER THE WORLD WILL CONVENE FOR THE TWENTYFIRST TIME TO PERSONIFY THE CURRENT MOMENT IN THE THEATRE’S LIFE. MORE THAN EVER BEFORE,

BITEF ’B7 WILL PRESENT ALL THE MAIN STREAMS DEMONSTRATED IN PREVIOUS FESTIVALS: CLASSICS WITH A NOVEL LOOK, PERFORMANCES SET OUTSIDE THE jT | TRADITIONAL STAGE, MULTIMEDIA ШЗ PRODUCTIONS WITH PARATHEATRICAL Щ ELEMENTS, DANCE BORDERING ON THE THEATRE AND THEATRE BORDERING ON THE DANCE, REPRESENTATION OF EXTREME THEATRE FORMS, PASTICHE PRODUCTIONS INSPIRED BY THE THEATRE’S PAST, REALISM TURNING INTO MAGIC AND MAGIC RESEMBLING REALITY. A VARIETY WHICH SOME MAY CALL ECCLECTICAL BUT WHICH MODERN THEORETICIANS INCREASINGLY CALL THE ART OF THE EIGHTIES, THE ART OF QUOTATIONS
