The NONSTOP EUROPA! international theatre festival celebrates Europe’s open borders. With a diverse pro- ­gramme of classical and performa­tive projects, the festival provides space for international interaction and artistic conversation. A diverse supporting programme and an international gathering of theater students complements the festival. Students meet to exchange ideas and present their projects and scene studies in a kind of laboratory. Audiences can look forward to experiencing unfamiliar perspectives and inspiring pro­ductions from all across Europe.
