IOTF is back! Now in its third year, this year's festival showcases 33 global productions made and/or captured during lockdown as artists, theatres and audience adapted to the challenges of making work during the pandemic. As the move to digital spaces has shaped all our lives the possibilities of using this new online 'space' to engage audiences as ideas of the 'live' are refashioned.

All the work in this year's festival - from Chile's Reminiscencia and the US/Russian chekhovOS /an experimental game/, to the UK's A Feast in the Time of Plague and Ukraine's Viňo - forges a path to the redefinition, reimagining and Renaissance of 21st Century Theatre. All productions are free to watch, wherever in the world you are.
