The Avignon theatre festival is a three-week concentration of performing arts – dance, drama, readings and debates – which is now in its 79th year. Hundreds of events are crammed into the relatively small French city, often in beautiful historical sites. And that’s just the official programme. FRANCE 24’s Olivia Salazar-Winspear has been filming a special show there and joins us on set to give us her personal highlights from the festival.
