Mallorca theatre premieres reach over 2,000 pupils

On Mallorca, more than 2,000 pupils from 18 schools are taking part in a theatre programme running from Wednesday to Friday. Every production in the school programme is making its Balearic debut, so some pupils are among the first people on the islands to see it.

The performances are part of L'Escola s'acosta a la Fira, an initiative bringing the Balearic Children's and Youth Theatre Fair (FIET) to schools. Organisers have scheduled nearly twenty performances of more than ten productions in different genres. They include m u m b l u by Brazilian company Artefactos Bascos and Newera by Catalan company La tal.

More than 1,500 children attended on Wednesday and Thursday. Organisers expect another 500 on Friday, when five performances are scheduled between 10.15 and 13.00. FIET opened its 24th edition on Wednesday at the sports hall in Vilafranca de Bonany, Mallorca.
