A week-long theatre festival at Fier's Bylis Theatre, directed by Klajd Marku, bringing together some of Albania's best theatre troupes for dramatic performances in a city better known for its nearby ancient Apollonia archaeological site. Its week-long concentrated format gives Fier a genuine national theatre moment distinct from its archaeological tourism reputation.
