Sarajevo Theatre Showcase

Sarajevo Theatre Showcase is an annual industry event held during the second week of September, providing a vital platform for theater professionals from Southeast Europe. Led by the Sarajevo War Theatre (SARTR) in collaboration with partners from Norway (Para Film & Theatre), Italy (Binario Vivo), Serbia (Heartefact Fund), and Croatia (Theatre Ulysses), this project seeks to create a dynamic platform for co-production, talent development, and sustainable practices in the regional theatre industry.

Its core programs—including a curated selection of performances, presentations, and the Green Lab initiative—connect regional talent with international decision-makers while promoting sustainable practices in theater production. The event blends professional development opportunities, such as residencies and workshops, with targeted support for women, young professionals, and underrepresented theater makers. By fostering international collaboration and empowering the regional theater sector, the Showcase serves as both a networking hub and a catalyst for innovative, environmentally responsible theater-making. New Theatre Market project if co-funded by the European Union.
