“Avignon 2026: Trends in Contemporary Theatre” at the Free Belarus Museum

Join us for the talk “Avignon 2026: Trends in Contemporary Theatre.”

What is happening in European theatre today? Which themes, aesthetics, and formats are shaping the international theatre landscape? And where does Belarusian theatre fit into it?

During the event, Viktoryia Yahorava will share her impressions from the Festival d’Avignon 2026, highlighting the productions and events that stood out most, identifying key trends, and discussing why they matter for us.

The programme also includes:

• the direction in which the European Theatre Convention is developing and why it is important;
• what people are really talking about behind the scenes at Avignon OFF;
• current opportunities for Belarusian theatre professionals;
• useful contacts, observations, and practical advice for those who want to work in an international theatre context.

We look forward to seeing you!

Starts at 6:00 p.m.
Admission: 20 PLN (all proceeds support the Free Belarus Museum)
