The international theatre festival NONSTOP EUROPA! celebrated Europe's open borders. With a diverse programme of classical and performative projects, the festival offered space for cross-border encounters and artistic exchange. The festival was complemented by a varied supporting programme and the transnational drama school meeting. The students met here to present their special projects and scene studies in a kind of laboratory and to exchange ideas. The audience could look forward to unfamiliar perspectives and inspiring productions from Europe.
