We scream to silence someone's voice. We scream when we can't win. We scream when it hurts. We scream to prove our superiority when we realize we're perceived as inferior but we don't have the courage to accept it. We scream because we are free.
𝟓. 𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝟓𝐭𝐡 𝐍𝐞𝐰 𝐄𝐮𝐫𝐨𝐩𝐞 𝐈𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐅𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥: 𝐋𝐎𝐔𝐃𝐄𝐑! is our scream for change, for freedom, for understanding. A scream to be heard, the last lifeline. A scream that is bold, sometimes desperate, and always honest.
Taking a stand against the increasingly ephemeral and festival-centric character of cultural life, we chose an ongoing formula for our event, which will run from September to December. We want to avoid framing our shows as fleeting, transient events, but want to turn them into a consistent practice of meeting with important theater artists from Europe and all over the globe.
Join us as we experience, discover, and confront a rich variety of perspectives, as well as engage in debate and conversation.
The curators of the 5th New Europe International Festival: Louder include: Olga Drygas, Piotr Gruszczyński, and Karolina Ochab.
