BIENNALE DI VENEZIA - TEATRO 2012

With the International Theatre Workshop, which will take place in Venice from 4 to 13 August, the director of the Theatre Section Àlex Rigola, explores and expands his thoughts on making theatre today in a programme that includes workshops, conceived as moments in which young people at the threshold of their profession may work with the Masters, and residencies, created to allow young artists to pursue their work independently, developing and consolidating their artistic intuitions. Two moments in a unitary process that intends to establish Venice as a place for artists to meet and exchange ideas, a workshop to build the contemporary.

Five directors and mentors of the contemporary stage (Luca Ronconi, Declan Donnellan with Nick Ormerod, Claudio Tolcachir, Neil LaBute, and Gabriela Carrizo) will hold workshops for young actors, directors, dancers and playwrights.
