We have started in December the 10-month-long educational,
theater program, in which we will work up with young people Ibsen’s play, ’Peer
Gynt’, and realize the performance ’Peer Gynt’s Children. After a multistage
selection process eight young people got involved in the scholarship program.
The scholars with different background and previous experiences interested in
theater will analyze and reinterpret the classic play according to its present
aspects and social points of view during the workshop together.

In the first phase they will make the story of the new play
of the Independent Theater of the project by analyzing the play, realizing thematic
situational practices and getting to know and work up actual artistic
initiatives. In spring the final play will be written on the base of their
work. The premier of the play will be held in summer after the professional
training of the young people, and a complex rehearsal process. The scholars work
and study together 15 hours every week.
