There may be a lot of artists and practitioners all over the world who are full of eagerness for TYA, but are invisible on an international level.

The greater good in international networking is literally to create platforms in order to share information.

I am an artist, as an artist (actor) it is more difficult to be a woman in Iran. We are not allowed to sing and dance on stage, we have to wear hijab on stage, even if our co-star is male, we cannot touch. We can't wear tight clothes, a male makeup artist is not allowed to put makeup on our faces, and we can't wear wigs. We should not move our body too much.
Como mujer iraní, siempre he sido atacada por hombres (patriarcado) con el apoyo de la República Islámica de Irán. Desde…
Being no fan of the term “development“ and also slightly irritated by the idea of “leaving someone behind“ (as it gives the impression that there is one correct path into some correct direction towards some correct big goal), I enjoyed joining those sessions and shows in Helsingborg that made it clear that this isn’t their nor our concept of Assitej at all.

Theatre has always been for me more than an artistic experience. It is also a social and cultural act, a moment of sharing, a moment full of magic and emotions. In mid-August I had the pleasure of attending the preview of a show for 13+. There were 25 teenagers in the room and some adults. Because of COVID, I hadn't been to a show for this age group for a long time. So I was delighted to be there. I had been told that the theme was heavy. Indeed, the show talks about family and the unspoken, about death, about words that liberate. There are also many other things in it.
El teatro siempre ha sido para mí más que una experiencia artística. También es un acto social y cultural, un…
Each three years cycle of ASSITEJ is structured around a Dramaturgy. The Executive Committee have been exploring the many elements that pull together and need consideration to build this narrative. There have been rich conversations about experiences of the last cycle and what is needed as we continue to grow through our varied experiences of the pandemic.

As artists we need to provide images to counter the images of violence that we see in our streets or in the media. Let’s listen to the voices of children. From South Africa, Ntalo-khanyisa Lerato Motsieloa Silindane (5) shares that “hands are for hugging, not for pushing, not for beating, not for punching or pushing or smacking”.

International fair cooperation, sustainability goals and what all this has to do with equity. The past year exposed the instability of artists globally, and as time went by, we observed that some countries created tools and disposed resources to help TYA artists who were forbidden or denied work for over a year. This was urgent and we can only be grateful for that. It is important though, not to lose from our sight the dramatic condition of artists in the Global South, and the emergency situation they are exposed to.

An incipient excitement can be felt in many theatres, cinemas and museums in France these days: the third lockdown is over now and from the 19th, the audience will be able to return. The capacities in the venues and all kind of rooms will be very limited (35% of the usual ones) and the COVID rules will be heavy, but arts and culture are fully back at last! Meanwhile, in some parts of the world, artists are still deeply in the COVID crisis, as in India or in South America.
Una incipiente excitación se respira estos días en muchos teatros, cines y museos de Francia: el tercer cierre ha concluido…
