 Drottningholms Slottsteater is today the only one
XVIIIth century theatre, kept in its original shape, that has a steady
operatic production activity. The summer festival rallies, each season, the most
talented artists and craftspeople.
This theatre was build in 1766 and, from 1771, the will of the sovereign Gustave III to develop arts and especially
theatritical arts in Sweden was very perceptible. Through his impetus, numerous artists et craftsmen
of french origin came to Sweden and contributed, in the XVIIIth century, to the
genesis of an independant swedish theatritical activity.
The
Drottningholm Programme allows artists, craftsmen or researchers working in
Drottningholms Slottsteater or Sveriges teatermuseum to come to Paris for one
week of work, which is an opportunity for them to explore historical links
between the practice of theatre in France in the Eighteenth Century, and their
own daily activity in Sweden.
