Youth  Fair – site-specific  theater 2019 - 12th  edition

October 01 – 05, Nikolay Binev Youth Theatre  

The  Youth  Fair  Festival  has  been  held  every  year  since  2007,  aiming  to  give  a  tribune  to  the youngest artists in the performing arts to perform  for  the  first  time.  

Since  2016,  the  format  of  the  festival  has  been  changing,  keeping its focus on the young, but developing a  poorly  studied  stage  practice  in  Bulgaria  –  site-specific  theater,  which  is  a  kind  of  a  stage performance inspired by a specific site.

The  festival  is  the  only  one  of  its  kind  in  Bulgaria,  which  takes  place  in  this  format.  For  the  12th  edition  of  the  Youth  Fair  the  team  of  the  Youth  Theater  has  invited  one  of  the  most  successful  Bulgarians  abroad  who practice this type of theater - Christian Bakalov, as well as artists from IAC Centro Arti Integrate from Matera (Italy) – the other city which is European Capital of Culture in 2019.
