Medeber Teatro – the lead partner of this project – is a performative, pedagogical and theoretical research project on theater and poetry.

The theater company’s activity is multi-layered, offering performances, participatory shows and weekly, as well as occasional, workshops on theater, movement and poetry. Through poetry, the company aims to stimulate the audience’s appropriation of its creativity and imagination to transform reality or at least to look at it from another perspective.

The name Medeber comes from a caravanserai in the city of Asmara in Eritrea where, every day, waste is transformed and put to a new use through the collective labor and creation of the market community.
