La Luna nel Pozzo – Festival Internazionale di Teatro in Strada
Street theatre invades the alleys of Caorle
About La Luna nel Pozzo
Caorle becomes an open-air theatre
La Luna nel Pozzo is the International Street Theatre Festival that animates the historic centre of Caorle, in the province of Venice, every September. The alleys, squares, and beaches of the lagoon village become the ideal stage for hundreds of shows, among the most appreciated on the Italian and European urban theatre scene.
Artists from all over the world
The festival brings together international artists and companies with a multidisciplinary programme: street theatre, contemporary circus, juggling, aerial acrobatics, fire shows, puppetry and large puppets, mime, clowning, street poetry, and children's theatre. Every corner of the city holds a surprise for the audience.
A long-standing cultural project
The event is conceived and organised by the Carichi Sospesi association, an organisation active in the production and promotion of performing arts. Over the years, the festival has also extended its spaces to Ca' Corniani and Porto Santa Margherita, confirming itself as a reference event for street arts in eastern Veneto.
Free and for everyone
All shows are free admission: families, children, and the curious can stroll through the squares and be captivated by the magic of the artists. A dedicated app accompanies the public in discovering the programme and schedules.
