“A Balkan dream”, an old-age wish and dilemma toward understanding, peace, cooperation, integration and human freedom of a Peninsula filled with commotions, legends and myths. Such historical, ethical and aesthetic synthesis became a reality through the International Festival of Theatre “Butrinti 2000”, which welcomed in its betrothal bosom the human gaiety, dolour and responses against the compelling run of the history.The “Butrintit 2000” International Festival of the Theatre shows up as a symbol of cultures’ confrontations and freedom of artistic creations. It is an open arena of the great masters of dramaturgy, who are brought to live through bearers of a contemporary reality. Taking into consideration primarily the antique, medieval and classical repertoire, the festival takes the shape of a return back to the origins, toward the old-age temples: the theatre. As a whole, the Festival establishes the premises of an aesthetic perception, both as much of museal as modern one, of a Region which beseeches to shape up its identity and integrity. This is the spirit of the “Butrinti 2000” International Festival of the Theatre, where everything already designed starts from the unbinding ties of the personal ethics with the social one, where coherence takes its basic priority.
