Mission and membership
The idea of setting up a professional European theatre network was first raised in November 2004 at the inaugural meeting of representatives of theatres and festivals from Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Montenegro, Croatia, Macedonia, Russia, Slovenia, Serbia, and Turkey, which was held in Bitola, Macedonia. Striving to overcome local, regional, and national interests in a sense of developing synergies on a European level, NETA members engage in international co-productions and exchange of performances, thus contributing to cultural diversity and intercultural exchange.
In 2010 there were 23 NETA Association signatories, from Albania (2), Bosnia and Herzegovina (2), Bulgaria (2), Croatia (2), Italy (2), Macedonia (4), Montenegro (1), Russia (1), Serbia (3), Turkey (1) and Slovenia (3). The Slovene representatives are Slovene National Theatre Nova Gorica, Slovene National Theatre Maribor, and Eẋ Ponto International Festival.
In 2015 the NETA network assembles 69 theatres and festivals from 20 European countries.
NETA festivals and coproductions
NETA organises a festival that takes place biannually in different cities. Up to 2013 the festivals were organised in Podgorica (ME) 2005, Sankt Petersburg (RU), 2007, Trieste (IT), Nova Gorica and Koper (SI), 2009, Ljubljana (SI), 2011, and in Vratsa (BG), 2013. In 2015 NETA Festival will be organised in Bucharest (RO).
The most notable NETA coproductions were Ljubomir Đurković's Cassandra directed by Slobodan Milatović in 2009, Martin Kočovski's production Red based on the motifs of the novel My Name Is Red by Orhan Pamuk in 2010 and The Lexicon of the Mythology of Former Yugoslavia directed by Oliver Frljić in 2011.
NETA Art TV
NETA Art TV is a long-term project supported by the Creative Europe funding 2014–2020. A network of NETA members works on setting up a European internet television channel dedicated to performing arts and other artistic media.
