BÉZNĂ Theatre is a British-Romanian political collective formed in 2013 by Sînziana Cojocarescu and Nico Vaccari. We make political theatre that investigates societal inequalities and confronts institutional, normalised violences. All BÉZNĂ productions are collaborations with eye witnesses & academics and accompanied by an act of interventionist activism led by an activist that campaigns against the violence that the respective production is opening a dialogue about
"As a British-Romanian company a lot of people ask us how we make work, and specifically how we make work between the UK & Romania, especially because our work is overtly political. Part of our practice is to share knowledge and exchange practice - so we’ve decided to demystify at least a little of how we make it work."
Claire Gilbert discusses BÉZNĂ Theatre's British-Romanian practice in advance of their show wipe these tears, coming to Camden People's Theatre 11-22 Oct.
Great theatre, lovely young team, brilliant supportive diverse programming, the only theatre I can think of that is currently supporting so many theatremakers.
