Ne svet, nego sebe. A možda i druge ljude. Pozorište je u stanju da utiče na menjanje ljudi, ali nije u stanju da menja svet. Mnogi bi voleli da je to moguće, ali mi znamo da nije. Zato se i bavimo pozorištem. Plavo pozorište je pozorišna laboratorija čija se ideologija bazira na principima koje su ustanovili reformatori pozorišta XX veka – Konstantin Stanislavski, Antonen Arto, Ježi Grotovski, Eu
đenio Barba i Odin teatar, kao i italijanski reditelj Masimo Đaneti. Pozorište koje postoji da bi se pozoriste služilo, a ne da bi mu se služilo, pozorište koje istražuje dublje nivoe ljudske komunikacije, pozorište koje ima ideju pomeranja granica ljudske percepcije, pozorište koje živi utopiju pomirenja antrpologije i društva i pozorište koje je kritički stav – to su naše osnovne premise. U središtu naše pažnje je čovek kao ljudsko biće. Čak i glumac je čovek, ljudsko biće, pa tek onda glumac. Pozorište je mesto čovekovog dodira sa životom, a ne sa njegovom imitacijom. Plavo pozorište je savremeno pozorište, mi smo grupa ljudi koja, negujući zrno anarhizma u sebi, koristi pozorište kao mesto koje ima kredibilitet i u kome se mogu reći neke ozbiljne stvari o svetu koji nas okružuje. PLAVO Theatre was founded in December of 1995 in Belgrade. We make theatre with the idea to change ourselves. Not the world, but ourselves. And maybe other people, too. Theatre is capable to influence people to change, but is not capable to change the world. Many people would like it to be possible, but we know it isn`t. That`s why we make theatre. PLAVO Theatre is a theatre laboratory which ideology is based on principles established by reformers of XX century theatre - Constantin Stanislavsky, Antonin Artaud, Jerzy Grotowski, Eugenio Barba and Odin Teatret, as well as Italian director Massimo Giannetti. Theatre which exists so that it could serve the people, and not to be served to, theatre which explores deeper levels of human communication, theatre which has the idea of moving boundaries of human perception, theatre which lives the utopia of reconciliation of anthropology and society, and theatre which presents a critical attitude – these are our basic premises. In the middle of our attention is man as a human being. Even the actor is a man, human being, and afterwards an actor. Theatre is the place of human touch with life, not with its imitation. PLAVO theatre is not a modern theatre. We are contemporary theatre, we are the group of people who, cherishing a seed of anarchism in ourselves, use theatre as the place which has credibility and where some serious things about the world that surrounds us could be said. As a part of regular activities, PLAVO theatre maintains education of young theatre creators through workshops and seminaries.
