This call for entries is opened to international groups or artists that practice experimental theatre or experimentation on scenic languages, to perform at Festival Opera Prima, 9–13 June 2027, in Rovigo, Italy.
By experimental theatre they mean a work that experiments with the dramaturgy (interpreted as scenic composition), the actor, the spectator and the scenic space. The Festival selects both original works that have not been yet performed or are Italian premiere, as well as works that have already debuted or being presented in Italy only in the 2026–2027 season. The submitted works must be no longer than 60 minutes.
All expenses and practices concerning the organisation, communication, staff, promotion of the event are the responsibility of the Festival. The Festival covers accommodation and one dinner (just for the artists and technicians working in the performance) and gives to the selected artists a production budget, which will also cover travel costs and other meals. The agreed fee will be paid after the presentation of an invoice.
