A song and dance for Europe

Article Abstract:

The Royal Court Theatre won the New Theatrical Realities prize at the Europe Theatre Prize event in Sicily. This prize recognized the Royal Court Theatre's work in promoting plays by dramatists including Mark Ravenhill and Conor McPherson across Europe and in encouraging international exchanges with other theatres. It is possible to raise a number of reservations about the Europe Theatre Prize itself, particularly the fact that this event seems to be designed largely to promote Sicily.
