ASSITEJ International

Our work spans far beyond geographical boundaries, knowing that every corner of the globe holds profound creative wisdom. From remote Indigenous communities to urban performing arts centres, from community theatres to national institutions, we know that knowledge is not hierarchical but circular. Just as our elders can teach, they equally learn from the young. It’s all about our intention.

Jon Dafydd-Kidd, Member of the ASSITEJ International Executive Committee

Working with access and inclusion in the arts is the opposite of isolating. It's about building connections and fostering curiosity about others - And we have to be in on it together, across all levels of our field.

Theis Irgens, Member of the ASSITEJ International Executive Committee

The future of ASSITEJ is being shaped right now by your passion, your imagination, and your commitment to young audiences everywhere. Let’s keep the spirit alive and keep building it together.

Bebê de Soares, Member of the ASSITEJ International Executive Committee

This text is a record of some significant memories of the ‘Bright Generations’ Artistic Gathering, organised by Théâtre Massalia and ASSITEJ France, in March 2025. I'll use a method which will allow myself, at times, to refer to some personal experiences - both from my connection with ASSITEJ and with milestones within the AAG; after all, it was also my 60th birthday.  As there were 819 delegates from different countries, I'll mention some people by their first names, so that they symbolise all of us who together made this gathering remarkable, strengthening the importance of the different threads that make up the ASSITEJ fabric. I will also do this to symbolise a phrase that was present in the speeches at the opening of the event: we are one big family.

Paulo Merisio, Member of the ASSITEJ International Executive Committee
