Qi Jie also spoke with one of the jurors, Dr. Clemens Treter. He's the director of the Goethe-Institute China. He shared his thoughts on theater, China, and much more.
2018 marks the third year that Theatertreffen Berlin has brought avant-garde German productions to Chinese audiences. Why China? I'm wondering if there are any historical background events or bonds between the two countries that have helped facilitate this kind of art cooperation?
Speaking of Chinese audiences, have Chinese audiences changed in the past three years, in terms of their interest or taste?
What do you think of the significance of this particular art form?
What's so special about this year's performance - Five Easy Pieces?
