Why Amateur Theatre Matters
Europe, its colonies and its migrant communities, both in the past and today. We are looking forward to discuss aspects of amateur theatre from any period of time, with a focus on the European context.
The ‘Amateur Acts’ conference is held from 8-10 September 2025 at the Palazzo Giustinian Lolin, Grand Canal, in Venice, and is realised in a partnership between Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität München, Germany, and the University of Warwick, United Kingdom. As the ‘Performing Citizenship’ project, the conference is funded by the European Research Council (ERC).
