An Introduction to the festival

The University Theatre of Franche Comté was founded in October 1986, and during the following two years it performed its own plays in France and abroad. But rather than simply responding each time to particular invitations, we decided in 1990 to inaugurate our own International Student Theatre Festival, and since then we have welcomed here scores of student groups from France and elsewhere.

The Festival is an exciting event each year for all those who participate and also for a wider public in and around Besançon.

During the week of the international meeting, there are plays and we organise some events (conferences- demonstrations, workshops...).

The Festival

We request all groups to participate fully in the Festival and to be present at all events.

The Parade

This should be bright and colourful. Participants can parade with flags, banners, traditional costumes and anything else that they would like to propose. A parade is when everybody walks together in the streets of Besancon to promote the festival towards the inhabitants of the city. We stop on different town squares and the groups could make then an animation of 10 minutes minimum (for example, you could play a scene of your show, sing traditional songs and dance traditional dances...)

Workshops

It will last about 3 hours. Each group needs therefore to designate a workshop leader. Participants can register for those workshops which interest them and which they will be expected to attend. This workshop is important for festival-goers in order to learn about the theatrical practices of other countries.

Performances and Discussions

Each group should be prepared to talk with the audience following its performance and to answer questions.

Criteria of Selection:

Application forms completed within the time stipulated /The quality of the proposed performance / The commitment and motivation of the group/ Workshops participation

Animations:

You will have to make animations in the different university restaurants on the campus or in the downtown. You will have to realize at least once during the week an animation of 10 minutes minimum. You must prepare it in advance in order to present it to students. It is important to promote the festival towards the students of Besancon. You could for example play a scene of your show, sing traditional songs and dance traditional dances... This animation can be the same as the one you will realize during the parade. All your ideas are welcome.
