What is theater like when it travels to audiences in a trailer, going directly to the regions? And what is it like for a foreign artist to perform in Czech villages and small towns? We bring you two video reports that capture the atmosphere and the experience of touring as part of the SPARSE Plus project.
Both videos were created by Barbora Josefina Meijer, who captured personal reflections from organizers, promoters, and performers. In the interviews, local organizers discuss their experiences, the project’s benefits for the community, and practical challenges such as technical infrastructure, language barriers, or the impact of weather on outdoor performances.
