Where are we now?
Un viaggio lungo 100 giorni quello di Romaeuropa Festival 2017, per raccontare le storie degli oltre trecento artisti ospiti attraverso una mappa tematica e narrativa che va oltre i soliti confini. Musica, teatro, danza, circo e arti visive lasciano spazio a storie potenti, visioni, racconti di sé ed esperienze da condividere.
79 progetti con 60 spettacoli oltre a mostre, installazioni, convegni e percorsi di formazione; 174 repliche in 24 diversi luoghi, per un totale di 57.600 posti di spettacolo in vendita; 7 prime assolute, 32 programmi internazionali. Giunto alla sua 32esima edizione e definito da Les Echos come: «Un festival internazionale che sospinge senza sosta i confini dell’arte», Romaeuropa convoca dal 20 settembre al 2 dicembre un battaglione di oltre trecento artisti provenienti da 32 Paesi
