Short Theatre is the multidisciplinary festival that since 2006, in Rome, has rejigged the signs pointing to the changing landscape of national and international live entertainment, with a layered program of shows, performances, installations, meetings, workshops, concerts and DJ sets. An open environment to research and exchange, one in which to develop new forms of transmission for theoretical and practical knowledge.
A time for the presentation of innovative languages inside the European and extra-European art scene, in which to offer established and emerging artists a space and a time in which to meet, get to know each other, confront each other.
In a complex metropolitan area like that of Rome, Short Theatre brings together the themes, content and subjectivity that define our present. Practice, theory, imagination and encounter are an organic part of a single artistic proposal, which dialogues with the spaces of the city to reactivate their meanings through reflection and curatorial practice, relaunching connections with the artistic community.
Short Theatre adopts tools and good practice in accordance with the objectives of the UN 2030 Agenda, for the reduction of its environmental impact and the promotion of inclusiveness, training, growth and innovation.
