The cycle of seminars - debates about theatre and world, moderator Vlad Zografi , playwright (October -December 2000)

“The theatre is a big building, situated in the middle of the city. Infrequently assaulted by the public, it is more often a meeting place for people heading towards other destinations. What is the road leading to theatre, even if it eludes the building of the theatre? What is theatre then? How does a text become a play? And, after all, to what purpose?” (Vlad Zografi)

The workshop addressed itself to actors, directors, set designers, young people seeking another familiarity with theatre than that of the spectator.
