Young&Kids

20th edition: the new generations

As is now tradition, the festival enriches its programme with the YOUNG&KIDS competition.

Four shows are in contest, for a cross-section on theatre for the new generations.
A programme suitable for children and young people, for schools but also for all those adults who love the magic of theatre.

K(-A-)O
Da 8 anni

ROSALUNA E I LUPI
Da 3 anni

CUOR DI CONIGLIO
Da 5 anni


In addition to these four performances, we propose the tout public show for ages 14 and up SE VOLEVO VIVERE SOTTO PRESSIONE NASCEVO PENTOLA by Camilla Parini, which opens the three-year cycle of FIT productions as part of the co-creation project “Sentieri Selvaggi” (The Searchers). A performative installation waiting to be discovered, developed by the artist together with young people aged between 16 and 22.

 

All classes participating in the shows will be asked to vote. The counting of the votes, together with the final vote of the YOUTH JURY, will determine the winner who will be awarded the Infogiovani prize.

Head of the Youth Jury: Monica Ceccardi.

Theatre, School, Family

We believe that one of the tasks of those who think and do theatre professionally is to educate young people to experience theatre as a place to meet and learn. That is why every year we dedicate a special space in our festival to children and “young adults”. Our choice is to present shows that, while following the path of theatre for the new generations, adopt new languages with distinctly contemporary proposals that often use new formats.

These are our recommendations for teachers and families:
