17th World Festival of Amateur Theatre gets underway! - 17–22 August 2021
The 17th World Festival of Amateur Theatre Village was officially opened by Mélanie-Antoinette de Massy, President of the World Festival of Amateur Theatre Honorary Committee, Béatrice Cellario, President of Studio de Monaco and the International Amateur Theatre Association (AITA/IATA absl), and Patrice Cellario, Minister of the Interior and General Commissioner of the event. The opening was also attended by a number of dignitaries from the Principality and the organisers of this year’s Festival.
Monaco’s Vocational and Catering School is hosting the event this year, which brings together some 250 festivalgoers and participants, with almost as many volunteers involved in greeting them as well as organising the Festival and ensuring that it runs smoothly. In addition to the Festival Club, rehearsal space, and relaxation and dining area, the Village is also hosting the 37th AITA/IATA absl Congress and Festival workshops and symposiums.
The 13 participating companies (from Belgium, the Central African Republic, Cuba, Finland, France, Hungary, Italy, Lithuania, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Spain and the US), featuring nearly 180 actors, will present 26 free performances between now and Sunday 22 August.
