Festival History
Created in 1987 by Enrique Pardo and PANTHEATRE under the auspices and presidency of James Hillman, the Myth and Theatre Festival took place in 1987 and 1989 at Château de Malérargues (Roy Hart Centre). It then moved to La Chartreuse de Villeneuve-lez-Avignon from 1991 to 1997, and travelled to New Orleans (1999 and 2001), Ireland (2000), Granada (2002 and 2003). In 2005 it returned to Malérargues, the Roy Hart Centre, for a cycle on "Myths of the Voice", of which the last one was in July 2008 titled: "Scheherazade, and her voice today". The 2012 festival was dedicated to James Hillman, Pantheatre's and the Festival's honorary president and main inspiring figure, who passed away in 2011. Since 2015 the Festival has been exploring topics in a Cycle dedicated to MAGIC in dialogues with French philosopher and ethno-historian Xavier Papaïs.
