To facilitate your visit, we invite you to contact us in advance. Welcome

It gives us tremendous excitement to share the Oslo Internasjonale Teaterfestival 2019 program with you, bringing together 20 shows, performances and installations over 10 days in 8 different locations. We will invite you into a variety of spaces: cultural venues (Black Box teater, Atelier Nord, Dansens Hus), open public space (Gråbeinsletta in Sagene), iconic, historical buildings (Bankplassen 4 and Kulturkirken Jakob); and the intimate and familiar (a former grocery shop and a flat). This shift in space comes along with an invitation to explore different experiences, physically and mentally, to open up a range of perspectives, and contribute to current debates, artistic and societal.

Several shows revisit the possible dialogue between different artistic disciplines or suggest a particular view of art history. Throughout the festival, the inner is one of the key words; the inner space, the inner voice, the inner self, offering the potential to get closer to oneself or discovering the stranger within. Intimacy and vulnerability are recurring themes. Several performances explore states of consciousness: dreams, floating worlds, hallucination and fantasy, as well as the memory and traces of people and places. Violence – through language, occurring towards individual or collective bodies – is also investigated.

When preparing this festival, I kept returning to this short quote “Night is sublime, day is beautiful” by the German philosopher, Emmanuel Kant. The sublime conveys contradic- tory pleasures. To enjoy the night, you may risk getting lost, encounter the undefined, feel overwhelmed by something bigger than yourself, that is out of control. Together with the mystery of the night, Oslo Internasjonale Teaterfestival 2019 might also blend with the gentle bite of a winter sun and the shimmering unpredictability of a red moon. During this festival, we will undoubtedly wander across the night and we hope you will also meet with the sublime.

Entering a festival is about sharing experiences in different rooms together, and getting into conversations with artists, thinkers, researchers, critics, spectators. We look forward to taking this journey with all of you!
