Mission and Objectives

Alkestis is a centre for research and experimentation in the art of theatre, and it is one of the oldest theatrical institutions in Sardinia.
Since its establishment in 1972 Teatro Alkestis has worked to research the roots of human life and its less known and forgotten aspects.
Our main aim is to establish contact and continuity between our contemporary culture and our ancient traditions, particularly looking at older and further societies, with a special attention to the countries in the Mediterranean Basin.
Our endeavour aims at finding ways and forms of artistic expressions, able to enrich our lives, both as individuals and as part of a broader society.
Over the years Alkestis has carried out many projects and collaborations with national and international artists, universities and public and private institutions both in Italy and overseas.
