Catalan theatre in Barcelona
"Come & See"

Come&See, the Catalan theatre gathering which takes place in Barcelona, was established in 2006 at the initiative of CIATRE, the professional theatre companies association of Catalonia, and its aim is to promote the creative work of theatre companies in Catalonia worldwide and to bring international theatre to Barcelona in a prominent, organised event.

Since the initial 2006 event, attended by more than a hundred first-rate international programmers, Come&See has opened its doors to all Catalan performing arts in an effort to create the opportunity for all companies, creators, venues and producers in Catalonia to present their shows to the agents, international festivals and programmers that have been invited.

The 2008 Come&See is an event, a performing arts showcase, a three-day meeting point – from 2 to 4 July – comprising some 30 half-hour long performances, as well as projects for co-production being presented, lectures, round-table discussions, face-to-face meetings and many other activities for all professionals who attend.

Come&See is funded by the Catalan Cultural Industry Institute (ICIC) and supported by the Cultural Institute of Barcelona (ICUB) – Barcelona City Council, Barcelona Provincial Council, the Institut Ramon Llull and the Spanish Society of Authors, Composers and Publishers (SGAE).

The world of theatre is bound for the Teatre Nacional de Catalunya (TNC) in Barcelona on 2, 3 and 4 July in order to see what's cooking in the Catalan theatre scene. This year national and state programmers are also being invited to find out about the latest theatre productions being created in Catalonia and to share opinions and experiences with colleagues from abroad.

Just Come & See!
