What’s the project Theatre in the City?
The project Theatre in the City has as its main goal to give Torres Vedras’ city educational microstructures to help fighting the regional asymmetries, providing educational and cultural enjoyment spaces for the citizens, in the context of theatre, of performative arts, and within a range of artistic expressions wider than the one the dramatic expression concept itself allows embracing.
In this project there’s an intention to discuss, through the several artistic and performative variants that the dramatic expression allows, subjects that include the concepts of city and community, as well as the relationships established between both, in a certain territory.
One of the richest methodologies to work the dynamics between the I, the other, the group and, finally, the community, is the sociodrama. This is the reason behind doing 6 workshops facilitated by credentialed sociodramatists.
Beside the more direct and obvious benefits inherent to the attending of training sessions (in this case under the format of workshops focused on share, experiment, know-how), we believe that through a continuous and persistent action this project will also contribute to win and fidelize theatre-going public.
