Festival Emulation
From 19 to 24/03/2019
Energy to satiety, the miracles sparkling with ideas, the verb high, the opinion sliced, the young companies will disembark and storm many rooms in the Burning City!
For here is already the eighth edition of the Festival Émulation, a precious professional lever put at the disposal of the young theatrical guard coming from the Wallonia-Brussels Federation. The windfall is to be seized also for the public, which will be able to devote its interest and curiosity to the works of the rising generation, while vivifying its appointments with the alive art.
A jury composed of international programmers will award the Emulation Prize, awarded by the Association of Friends of the Theater of Liège.
A second jury, made up of secondary school students from the Province of Liège, will award the Coup de Coeur.
For a week, the Théâtre de Liège gives a voice to young emerging artists and brings to the fore seven of their creations.
Every evening, after the shows, the Festival Emulation afters welcome you from 22h in a festive and relaxed atmosphere.
With the support of the Club des Entreprises partenaires of the Liège Theater
