Mission & Interests

Goals: Belarus Free Theatre (BFT) is the foremost refugee-led theatre company in the UK and the only theatre in Europe banned by its government on political grounds; it was founded in 2005 in Minsk under Europe's last surviving dictatorship. Described by The New York Times as, “one of the bravest and most inspired underground troupes on the planet”, BFT has brought audiences some of the world's most provocative and breathtakingly physical theatre - 46 brand new productions performed in more than 40 countries over the past 15 years. Alongside exploding social taboos on the world stage BFT tirelessly campaigns for artistic freedoms and human rights across the globe.
