Final Press release from the XV Europe Theatre prize held in Craiova, Romania
The XV Europe Theatre Prize took place from 23 to 26 April in Craiova, Romania, following on from the prestigious International Shakespeare Festival, which this year reached its tenth edition. This year the ETP, held under the patronage of the city of Craiova, which chose to link the two events, was organized in conjunction with the Shakespeare Foundation and the ‘Marin Sorescu’ National Theatre, with the contribution of the Romanian Institute of Culture.
During the first day, as a fitting continuation of the International Shakespeare Festival, the Prize hosted two performances inspired by the Bard of Avon as part of the Returns section: Giulio Cesare, pezzi staccati, by Romeo Castellucci, and Richard III, directed by Thomas Ostermeier.
