SPOT NTFI 2011
In 2009, given the success of the first two editions, the Ministry for Cultural Assets and Activities confirmed Naples as the per- manent venue of the event.
Ever since the first edition, the Festival has been characterized by an inter- national programme: most of the shows are produced, co-produced (with the major European theatres in the world) or commissioned by the Festival that invites Italian and foreign artists to create site specific shows for the city. The city becomes the real focus of the Festival: in fact, along with the historic and innovation theatres, other non-theatrical spaces, such as monumental buildings, full neighbourhoods, churches, art galleries, museums and dis- mantled industrial areas, are turned into stages for shows that will host the June programme.
