Art and theatre to dream of fantastic worlds

18-month to 18-year-olds: the protagonists of today and tomorrow

A world of artists on the stage… and in the street

Story

Created in 2006, it is the main activity of the Segni d’Infanzia Association.

The only one of its kind in Italy, SEGNI New Generations Festival is an international art and theatre event aimed at boys and girls, children and teenagers aged 18 months to 18 years.

It is designed to involve schools, families and all those who love the theatre, research and the languages of the arts.

Artists and companies from Italy and abroad – among the most renowned and innovative on the world scene – perform in shows, workshops and art itineraries, in Mantua’s most beautiful locations. Support by the President of the Republic – in the form of a Representative Award – is a guarantee of the high quality of the project.
