In partnership with the Faculty of Technical Sciences in Novi Sad and the internationally awarded and renowned SCEN Center for Scene Design, one part of the TURNING POINT programme is the all-day international conference “Scene Design and New Technologies in Performing Arts for Young Audiences”.

Part of the programme will also be the presentation of student performances at this year’s Prague Quadrennial of Stage Design, which was awarded for the “most imaginative concept” of the student exhibition DREAMING, which is another confirmation of the original, contemporary and thoughtful expression of young authors in the field of performing arts in our context.
