General Information

Teatro Praga has 6 regular employed works plus a large number of regular colaborators. Teatro Praga is funded by Culture State Secreatary/DGArtes and coproduced by several arts organizations (CCB/TNDMII/Teatro Viriato/MC93 Bobigny)

Mission and Objectives

Teatro Praga is a group of artists working without a director and wishing to emphasize the singularity of the theatrical practice. They are always different, are in constant metamorphosis and subject to unpredictable variations of themselves. The group finds its identity and difference not in questions such as “What do we do?” or “What was done before us?”, but in a desire and need to confront the answers top these questions. The shows are events, not to put aside their physical theatre (drama), go in search of "ultimate responsibility of the spectator," ie, to find a community in chaos fictional
