Fire Carnival
ДТ Никола Вапцаров About the project
The project is aimed at creating a new cultural product for a broad audience in several towns and cities in the Blagoevgrad region. The main idea is for the Drama Theatre "Nikola Vaptsarov" – Blagoevgrad to step beyond the boundaries of the conventional stage and meet audiences in an urban setting, turning streets and squares into open-air stages.
About the performance
Created in partnership with the Theatre of Fire and Shadows – FIRETER, the performance brings together professional artists and participants from the Theatre School at the Drama Theatre "Nikola Vaptsarov" – Blagoevgrad in a colorful stage experience in which fire manipulation, stilt walking, juggling, acrobatics, and theatrical action become a shared celebration.
The performance is directed by Plamen Ivanov – an artist, teacher, and co-founder of FIRETER, with many years of experience in the field of contemporary street and circus arts. Also taking part in the process is Viktor Teofilov – an artist and trainer in juggling, dance, and fire arts.
The process
"Fire Carnival" is the result of a workshop-laboratory in street spectacle arts, in which actors and young participants explore the possibilities of the body, rhythm, fire, and collective play.
Admission
The event will be held with free admission.
