Due to the diversity of the participants and the richness of the chosen texts, the Festival of Words has become a spectacle of style, tone, expression, and emotion that immerses the audience in a world of elegance and confidence.
For an evening, we rediscover the oral tradition of storytellers from the past, bringing words to life through their talent as passionate narrators, evoking feelings with just their voice.
