15 years of EAE

On September 26th-27th ErosAntEros comes back to the stage in Ravenna with a third important event, organized by POLIS Teatro Festival, on the occasion of the 15th anniversary of the company: an extraordinary event that will stage in Ravenna their two new productions – thanks to the support of the Special Projects 2025 of the Italian Ministry of Culture – a celebration enriched by moments of discussion with scholars, journalists, professionals and friends, who have nurtured the company’s journey over the years.

In 2025 we celebrate 3 important anniversaries: 15 years of ErosAntEros, 30 years since the death of Heiner Müller, and 50 years since the publication of The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas by Ursula Le Guin. We do so by developing new best practices in research, production, programming, promotion and distribution of live performance, involving local and international audiences, within a project that supports and programs the two new performances by Agata Tomšič and Davide Sacco inspired by these artists.

A rich program, brought to international attention through a new collaboration with ATER Fondazione, accompanied by several side events such as: an international panel on Heiner Müller and a round table to celebrate the anniversary of the founding of ErosAntEros.

How can we celebrate 15 years of artistic activity in a world torn apart by wars, environmental crises, and personal interests that generate violence of all kinds, to which the majority of people, trapped in their daily struggle for survival, remain indifferent?
Choosing two authors such as Heiner Müller and Ursula Le Guin is our answer, but only because we believe that through the works of these two authors, it is possible to collectively question our present and imagine better futures.
How can we celebrate 15 years of artistic activity at a time marked by declining cultural policies, not only in the recent period, when this development has been most worrying, but throughout the long period from the birth of our company to the present day?
Inviting friends who, like us, continue to believe in the value and power of theater and culture, and to dedicate their lives to it, is our answer: to reflect on the last 30-15-0 years of Italian and European theater, and to ask ourselves what common strategies we can undertake to face the future.
