At the Assembly, new projects, cooperations, and the exchange of productions between theatres, three festivals to be held next year, and a new UTE’s project – the one-year Academy that will enable young artists from the Union member countries to work and professionally develop working with European theatre professionals – were discussed.

Apart from that, an exchange of productions was agreed upon with the theatres from Rome (Teatro di Roma), Thessaloniki (Thessaloniki National Theatre) and Sofia (Sfumato Theatre).
