What if I don't understand anything? Will I feel like I belong? Am I dressed correctly?
Faced with these questions that we have all asked ourselves, the Festival works to make theatre accessible to all. The "Fisrt time" project was born out of the desire to answer these questions, to respond to a desire to feel at home or to make coming to a performance more comfortable.
Because images, sound and digital technology can whet the appetite for live performances, the Festival develops media education projects. Throughout the year, and then in immersion in July, hundreds of young people appropriate the codes of the new media formats to make their voices and those of others heard.
The Festival d'Avignon offers practical workshops designed for as many people as possible, inviting the public to get into action : introductory modules to the world of the performing arts or to reinforce an artistic and cultural education programme.
