Here we have another year that will be marked by the most wonderful summer festival in Europe, and quite certainly even wider. Traditionally, from July 1 - 12, Kotor Festival of Theatre for Children gathers all the theater viewers and connoisseurs, both big and small, and takes them to an unforgettable adventure through the town of Kotor.

This year we have a mission to, in addition to Kotor, Europe, world and universe, conquer the Moon too with our imagination, and on this trip, Cizgi Kukla Theatre from Istanbul, Turkey will join us.

​The town musicians of Bremen is a well-known tale by the Grimm Brothers, which gets a new face in this version by using a special technique of black light. This puppet show will offer children a chance to think about a concept of freedom, through adventures of four animals – a donkey, a dog, a cat and a rooster, who have to leave their homes. The donkey, dog, cat and rooster will help children realize how to fight for a free life. The original technique that characterizes this play, and its characters, gives you a feeling of watching a cartoon playing out right here in front of you.

This year we have a mission to, in addition to Kotor, Europe, world and universe, conquer the Moon too with our imagination, and on this trip, STANICA – service for contemporary dance from Belgrade, Serbia will join us. 

​We will open the competitive program with a dance performance named MUSEUM OF DANCE, recommended for children between 3 and 7 years of age. Museum of Dance is a 30-minute-long participatory, interactive play that takes place within a spatial installation inspired by history of dance and choreography. The installation, which represents a museum at a small scale, consists of different rooms where each of them offers a different approach to reflections on dance. In each of the rooms, children in a special way encounter dance and choreography and have a possibility to individually and within a group create, observe or talk about dance. In addition to its educational character, the installation and performers interact with the audience differently than in typical drama and dance performances since children have the opportunity to enter and explore spaces created by artists gathered around the Museum of Dance project. The installation was created as a part of regional project for development of dance theatre for children and youth Generator, implemented in 2015.

Kotor Festival of Theatre for Children has decided to take you on a new adventure. After last year’s incredible journey around the world – for our 27th edition, we decided that not even the sky is the limit. So, prepare yourself for a brand new mission: A TRIP TO THE MOON! We found inspiration in the works of Jules Verne, Herbert George Wells, Georges Méliès, Branko Ćopić, as well as the 50th anniversary of the first man landing on the Moon.

On the mission A TRIP TO THE MOON, in the Theatre Program of 27th KFTC, our fellow astronauts from 20 theatres, with 16 theatre shows, will join us. Who they are and which shows they will perform, see below. ​

KFTC has confirmed its quality once again by receiving the EFFE label for the next two years.

The first of EFFE’s initiatives is the quality label. The EFFE Label is Europe’s quality stamp for remarkable arts festivals showing their engagement in the field of the arts, community involvement and international openness.
