„The publication of this special edition (…) enables a remarkable focus to be brought to a dynamic concept of scenography, no longer viewed in a supporting role to the main production, but as an autonomous dimension of creative imagination. An approach that is even more stimulating since scenography is no longer today only associated with theatre or visual arts, but has spread widely across the public arena, and whose „stage production“ (via communication and marketing) too often takes us for mere passive spectators. The twelth edition of the Prague Quadrennial, at the crossroads between intimacy and spectacle, signals perhaps the start of a new era.“

It works almost like a World Cup. Happens each four years. Meet delegations from more than 40 countries in the dispute for the champion place. The difference here is the target of the competition, that pass far away from the field and fall over the theatre. This is the Prague Quadrennial, the most important international exhibition of scenography, costumes and technology to the scenic arts.

The exhibition is one of the most important vents of its kind in the world. A similar event, World Stage Design, was begun several years ago in Toronto, but it cannot compete with the Praque Quadrennial.

Just a quick glance at the programme reveals that the PQ offers a truly diverse range of exhibits that stands a good change of attracting the interest of the general public.
