Fragilities. How we write our personal stories

Caragiale, coordinated by Mihaela Michailov, will come to life on the stage of Studio Hall.
The reading show, Fragilities. How we write our personal stories is directed by Irisz Kovacs and represents the end of the DRAMA WRITING WORKSHOP #1 within the fourth edition, New Voices, of the European project Fabulamundi. Playwriting Europe.
Playwrights: Irina Balcu, Raluca Cîrciumaru, Alexandru Gorghe, Anamaria Feraru, Iulia Mirică, Simona Tăruş
Each of the six young playwrights documented the actor’s story and created a short monologue related to that story, exploring how a personal aspect can become theatrically significant.

Fabulamundi – New Voices is the new edition of a successful history of cultural promotion in the name of European values and heritage, which aims to bring contemporary playwriting closer to the younger generations.
Fabulamundi will innovate European playwriting by developing and testing a new methodology to create and train a new generation of playwrights, putting dramaturgy into the spotlight, removing the barriers to the profession and integrating digital tools and results in the creation process.
The methodology will be tested in 9 countries and implemented by a consortium of 14 organisations active in the field of theatre and dramaturgy, located in all the European regions (including the Western Balkans). It will also be assessed and disseminated by Culture Action Europe and European Theatre Convention, which will ensure its wide international outreach.
