Trap Door Theatre's inventive production of Matei Visniec's Horses at the Window in collaboration with critically acclaimed Romanian director, Radu-Alexandru Nica, will perform as part of the Tenth National Symposium of Theatre in Academe at Washington and Lee University in Lexington Virginia. A poetic parody of war's long-reaching effects on the home-front, Horses at the Window reflects the central theme of this year's symposium, "Eros and Thanatos; Sexuality, War and Violence."

The work will be observed and discussed by various international academic panelists and students. The event will take place November 11-15, 2009 at the Washington and Lee University. The joint event proposes to gather theater scholars, teachers, and practitioners as well as theater activists in an open exchange of ideas and artistic expressions relevant to the main themes. These joint events also aim to create international collaborations through theater, innovative and life affirming artistic products, and exchanges in a world of crisis and violence.
