A BOAT

The 20th edition of the International Theatre Project of Continuo Theatre
Plum Yard, Malovice, Czech Republic, 11. – 16. August 2016, at 9 PM.

Basic information about a project

Continuo Theatre is preparing the jubilee 20th edition of the International Theatre Project. The Spectators are invited to Plum Yard, the seat of Continuo, to see a performance called A Boat.

During the performance Plum Yard is going to be transformed into a stylized boat. The performance will take place in the middle of a dance floor. The audience will see all the events from three sides through the windows associating a view from a boat cabin. The stage will be really original technically as well as artistically in order to provide a magical and poetic space for the theatre event.

Since 1997 Continuo Theatre has been organising summer site specific projects, which are attended by young people from all over Europe and whose result is always a unique theatre performance in a non-theatrical space. These projects are closely connected with the area where Continuo members have lived since 1995.

The performance is being made in cooperation of twenty young people from all over Europe (Poland, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Italy, Switzerland, Russia, Greece and Germany), students, artists, dancers, performers and musicians, under the guidance of Continuo Theatre members and directed by its art director Pavel Štourač.

This year Continuo Theatre members have decided to work right in their seat Plum Yard, whose renovation was finished a year ago in summer 2016, in a special space surrounded from three sides by the buildings with storey galleries.

A visual physical performance with a live band and an originally designed view for the audience starts a new phase of the specific theatre genre at the turn of the second decade of Continuo Theatre activities in non-theatrical spaces.
