The Gift of Diversity The Intercultural Theatre
Storytelling Laboratory begins its journey exactly in November 2005 in The storytelling was chosen
as the main tool. However, the Intercultural
term is what characterizes the whole, with the meaning that we clarify in our
idea, like this abstract tells: the most powerful, significant and revolutionary way to have an intercultural point of view, in other
words, to underline the importance of
differences and richness inside our individuality, is to show the diversity of people that often think
themselves as equal (not
celebrating the equality of strangers...),
to tell how much they are interesting to listen when they are speaking about
themselves and how all become wonderful if they are so proud to mix each others. That is why we think that Interculture
is much more related with the individual
stories, rather than their original
country. For this reason we believe that Italy itself, with all its dialects and its diverse people, is
already a multicultural land, even
before the arrival of the so-called immigrants, often discriminated and sometimes auto
discriminating. In 2007 we had the number one edition of the Storytelling
Festival in
About seventy artists and companies from north to south
The chosen stories have been told on stage by the actors of the
laboratory during the event. In late 2009, working for the fourth edition of the Festival, we
published this Call for submission: We
look for news. Do you know a fact that you think has been inadvertently or
deliberately ignored by the media? This time too we have reached many interesting proposals and important
news all worthy of being accepted, however, we have reluctantly had to make a
choice. A sincere thank you to those who have considered us worthy of their
trust. The fourth edition of the Intercultural
Theatre Storytelling Festival, the diversity of news, will be on June 4 and 5 2010 in We’ll wait for you! ___________________________________________ ___________________________________________ Last update: 2010/02/23 |
