Favela Força (BR) and the Rotterdams Wijktheater (NL)

In February 2010 there was an exchange between the Rotterdams Wijktheater (RWT) and Favela Força (FF) in the context of the Central de Cultura programme. This led to so much mutual curiosity and enthusiasm that the RWT has asked the FF to participate in the International Community Art Festival Rotterdam (ICAF, March 2011).

residency and workshops

In the collaboration between FF and RWT, actors from FF will take up a residency for the two weeks preceding the ICAF. One director and four or five young people from FF, together with a director from RWT and four young people from Rotterdam, will create a new show, which will then be shown during the ICAF. During the festival, the young people from FF can also participate in all the workshops and the rest of the programme.
