25. bis 28. März 2026
The festival full of theater and digitality returns for its third edition! In March 2026, “DIGITHALIA - Festival for Virtual Theater Forms Graz” will once again showcase innovative narrative approaches.
For four days, »DIGITHALIA« turns the Schauspielhaus Graz into a stage for theater venturing into the unreality of virtual worlds, posing questions about community, power and resistance. The festival examines the extent to which theater relies on technology and conversely technology makes use of theatrical tools. Looking for analog encounters, it ventures deep into the spaces of the virtual.
The third edition presents texts, performances and multimedia works negotiating the possibilities of co-existence: Who is behind the avatars and aliases? Who prefers to remain anonymous and who is looking for a new community? Whilst bots are manipulating communication networks and platforms open up to dubious truths, new skills are required: Skills and insights into how we want to engage with each other – How trust, information and knowledge can be negotiated.
“DIGITHALIA” presents regional and international productions as well as shows by the Schauspielhaus Graz. With performances, games, films, installations and concerts, the SCHAUSPIELHAUS becomes a gathering place for anyone keen to find out how the theater can address the Digital and how the Digital will respond.
