Lebanon\u2019s European Theatre Festival is the first event of its kind in the region.

This second edition of Lebanon\u2019s European Theatre Festival, offers a rich 16-day programme of plays, workshops, panels and exhibitions, with the participation of more than 60 artistes and theatre professionals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This year, the plays speak of issues such as social diversity, identity, migration, and others that both Lebanon and the European Union are faced with. Performances and other theatre activities with artistes and theatre makers from ten different countries will take place in Beirut, including from Belgium, Denmark, France, Ireland, Italy, Germany, Poland, Spain, Romania, and Lebanon. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
A puppet performance, Pulcinella, in collaboration with the Instituto Italiano di Cultura, will be held in Tripoli on Oct 5, at Azm Cultural Centre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
