Followed by public discussion with Loreta Georgievska-Jakovleva, Sofia Kunovska, Maja Stevanovic and Filip Jovanovski. Moderator Biljana Tanurovska – Kulavkovski.

The usual definition of the term political theater is that it is “a term that denotes a theater used for political purposes, usually as part of a campaign or movement, sometimes as part of the work of a political party. In the broadest sense, the term can have a wide range of applications, from community theater to awareness raising by specific identity groups, such as women’s rights movements, African Americans or the LGBT community.
