First professional days for the Theatre of the Balearics

On September 23 and 24 there will be the first professional days for the Theatre of the Balearics at Can Tàpera (Sant Agustí) to debate the state of Dramatic Art in our community. The incipient theatrical industry that has occured in the past few years, the increase in the professional companies and stages, and also the structuring of the sector, are some of the precedents that have motivated these first days to debate the problems of Professional Theatre.

The days are organised by the General Direction of Culture of the Balearic Government, Social Welfare Services of the Sa Nostra savings bank, the Balearic Association for Theatrical Production Firms (ABET), and the Association of Professional Actors and Actresses of the Balearics (AAPIB).

The days are orientated especially towards the whole professional theatre sector, but are also open to anyone interested in the subjects to be analysed:
- Cultural politics. Social projection of the theatre. Communication media. Public.
- Professional production. Amateur-Professional. Economics and legislation.
- Exhibition. Stage areas. Circuits. Festivals, Fairs, Exhibitions.
- Profesionals: Actors, Directors, Authors, Technicians, stage producers, lighting, producers, etc.

In the month of July in Mallorca work groups were organised with representatives of the sector, to make an X-ray of the professional theatrical situation in the islands and to extract a list of proposals that will serve as a basis for debate. Groups in Ibiza and Menorca have also been organised to create a document with the specific problems of each island.
