Nové frankofonni Scény

Nové Frankofonni Scény or New Francophone Scene, brings together the artistic activities of the Théâtre de l'Imprévu company in the Czech Republic for more than 15 years. The activities offered as part of this annual meeting are divided into three distinct stages:

The Frankoscény, European Francophone theater festival for Czech and foreign high school troupes.

The Read Aloud Contest, aimed at Czech high school and college students who practice French in a school setting.

Artistic workshops, in different high schools in the Czech Republic where it is possible to learn French.

After two years of uncertainty linked to the COVID-19 health crisis, this year 2022 has been placed under the sign of a new artistic impetus. The time had come to organize face-to-face events again, to bring together amateur and professional actors, to confront new stagings, new texts.
