The aim of the “Be IN!” project is to break down stereotypes through theatre and related activities, show people new perspectives on world vision, arouse in them the ability to think critically, and lead them to self-knowledge and self-development, which ultimately has an impact on societal change.

Conference in Warsaw: theatre as a way to inclusion

We had a big meeting in Warsaw to talk about inclusion in theatre. People from Teatr 21, Blue Apple Theatre, and Aldente Theatre shared their thoughts. Students from Rytmus also talked about what they found out from the Be IN! project. Lots of theatre experts from different places came to join us.

Interactive exhibit in Brno

The interactive exhibition was created by young researchers based on their two-year experience with three European theatres working with actors with learning disabilities. The exhibition is not only a reflection of their own feelings, but also a mediator of such an experience thanks to its interactive form. Thematically, the exhibition is based on Socratic questions – difficult questions about inclusion to which there is no clear answer.

Publication: Theatre as a path to inclusion

The publication is an output of the conference “Theatre as a Path to Inclusion”, which took place on 4 March 2023 at the Centre for Inclusive Arts / Teatr 21 in Warsaw. The aim of the conference was an international reflection on the current state of theatre and the level of inclusion in the theatre environment. Representatives of the Be IN project organisations (Teatr 21, Blue Apple Theatre, Aldente Theatre, Rytmus) and student researchers presented their papers, reflecting on the whole Be IN project from the outside and allowing them to compare different approaches to inclusion in different countries.
