FORUM - FOUNDATION OF A EUROPEAN ASSOCIATION FOR STREET THEATRE
by Gabriele Koch, La Strada Festival
 
Gabriele Koch - La Strada Festival in Bremen

Why is it that street theatre does not have an efficient European lobby yet, that stands up for the genre´s interests? Who should speak up for us if we not do it ourselves? Creative heads, friends and supporters of street theatre let´s get together and found a European lobby and network for our shared passion!

La Strada and Open Street Bremen would like to contribute by setting up the framework for such a foundation. We would like to invite you to come to Bremen and share your ideas, opinions and experiences and be part of the foundation of a European Lobby for street theatre.

We are going to organize workshops where we all will develop an internationally understandable name, explore our mission, vision and objectives as well as concrete operational strategies.

Where does FORUM take place? FORUM will take place within the framework of this year´s La Strada international street theatre festival in Bremen, Germany.

When does FORUM take place? 18 - 19 August 2011
