Express Yourself!

Using theatre as a self development and communication tool between cultures

Now youth has many problems to face and many difficulties to deal with in their countries. Having lack of experience, they cannot deal with them in a proper way. Sometimes they are able to cope with different situations requiring drastic measures, but other times they just lose without even trying. We want to carry out this project to gather the youth from all over the Europe and not only, to provide an exchange of information between youngsters representing diverse cultures so that we can show that in every corner of the world people face the same problems, they have to find solutions for the same issues. In this way, we will show similarities of different nations and their entirety.
Firstly, by carrying out this project we want to make the communication between the youth of different nations easier and more pleasant by overcoming international barriers that exist between various cultures. Our aim is to teach what we have in common, what challenges we overcome that are the same for each of us.
Secondly, even if we have various backgrounds and we live in different societies, every day we face problems that are similar to everyone. Our goal is to show this similarity, to make the youth understand and accept it easily.
