Monodrama Theatre Festival - Bitola
Monodrama Theatre Festival - BitolaSeven years ago Bitola's Cultural Center started a monodrama festival that has become an important source of theatrical activity. Located in the cross point of three borders -- Macedonia, Greece, and Albania -- the city of Bitola and the neighbouring Otesevo (with its international festival of small theatrical forms taking place at the same time in July) has become an attractive place for international exchanges for this region. The first festival of Macedonian monodrama was held in October 1999 with Macedonian participation only and had a non-competitive character. Today the five-day festival has gained an international character and takes place 7-11 July.
