The drama, comedy, and dance festival in San Vito dei Normanni
The Teatro Tex – ExFadda Theater Season is the winter highlight for drama and live performance in San Vito dei Normanni, a town in the province of Brindisi, Puglia. Promoted by the Municipality of San Vito dei Normanni in collaboration with Puglia Culture, the regional multidisciplinary performance circuit, the festival runs from January to April with a series of events scheduled at 9:00 PM.
Performances take place at TEX, the theater housed within ExFadda, a former wine factory that has evolved over the years into one of Salento's most vibrant cultural laboratories. It is a community hub where theater coexists with music, dance, and education, breathing new social and artistic life into a building of industrial heritage.
The strength of the season lies in the variety of its program, designed for a broad and diverse audience. Alongside great classics of the repertoire—from Pirandello to Genet, from Feydeau to Neil Simon—there is space for brilliant comedies, variety shows, and one-man shows by the most beloved comedians of Italian television. Auteur dance is also featured, with residencies and events dedicated to young talents as part of the Anticorpi XL network.
More than just a festival, the Teatro Tex Theater Season is a cultural project that weaves together quality entertainment and local roots. Thanks to the support of the Municipality and the Puglia Culture network, San Vito dei Normanni confirms its role as a hub for live performance in the heart of the Brindisi province, capable of bringing names and productions to a small town that typically tour Italy's major theaters.
The 2026 festival presented eight shows at TEX – ExFadda in San Vito dei Normanni, alternating between auteur drama, comedy, and dance. A journey curated by the Municipality together with Puglia Culture, bringing well-known names to the Salento stage.
