bma lab: expanded performance: intermedia experiences in contemporary theatre with barbara matijević

In this masterclass promoted by Circuito – Serviço Educativo Braga Media Arts, Barbara Matijević offers an immersion into the intermedia universe of performing arts, drawing on her vast practical experience. After an introduction on the use of digital and audiovisual media in theatre, concrete examples of projects developed by Barbara and Giuseppe Chico, creators of the show SCREENAGERS Vol. 2 — which will be presented at Theatro Circo the day before — will be presented, illustrating how this approach differs from other practices. The session will also include a question and answer session, encouraging open and enriching dialogue between participants and the artist.

Barbara Matijević is the founder and artistic co-director of the Premier Stratagème theatre company, based in Paris. In her work, she explores the impact of digital culture on storytelling through autofictional performances, performative lectures, radio plays, choreographies, and installations. As a dancer and actress, she has worked with several choreographers and directors, including Boris Charmatz and Joris Lacoste.
