Teatri di guerra
A live podcast by Enrico Baraldi and Graziano Graziani
What does it mean to continue making theatre under the bombs? What is theatre in Ukraine about today? What do these spaces that, despite everything, have remained open mean for the people? Graziano Graziani and Enrico Baraldi bring to Mittelfest the journey they have undertaken in war-stricken Ukraine, from the west to the front, visiting some important Ukrainian theatres that have resumed activity and that, despite the conflict, continue to work, asking everyone the same question: “Why theatre?”.
