Casablanca Becomes the Capital of Student Theatre Once Again

societé

For six days…

 

The spotlight won’t be on movie stars.

 

It’ll be on students.

 

From July 4 to 9, Casablanca will host the 38th International Festival of University Theatre (FITUC), bringing together young performers, directors and artists from around the world.

But this isn’t just another theatre festival.

 

FITUC is one of the oldest university theatre festivals in the world, and for nearly four decades, it has turned Casablanca into a meeting place for creativity, culture and dialogue.

This year’s theme focuses on bringing together young people from Europe, Africa, the Atlantic and the Mediterranean through art.

 

The program includes:

 

International performances.

 

Workshops led by theatre professionals.

 

Academic conferences.

 

Cultural exchanges between students from several countries.

The festival will also pay tribute to several major figures of Moroccan theatre, including its founder Hassan Smili, while launching a permanent theatre workshop for students and young people in Casablanca.

 

A way to ensure that creativity doesn’t end when the festival does.

In a world dominated by social media and short videos…

 

Theatre reminds us of something different.

 

No filters.

 

No edits.

 

Just real people…

 

Sharing real emotions on stage.

Because sometimes…

 

The most powerful stories aren’t streamed on your phone.

 

They’re performed live.

But here’s the real question…

 

If you had to choose one art form to tell your story… would it be cinema, music… or theatre?
