Programme
For three years, Helsingør Teater and PASSAGE Festival have held the artistic direction of the English street theatre festival SO Festival in Skegness, Lincolnshire. This year, the festival’s physical format was replaced by SOfa Fest: a digital version, which reached both a Danish and an English audience with streamed performances in bot DK and UK as well as participatory activities. SOfa Fest was broadcast live 1st – 2nd August through SO Festival channels, and 22nd – 23rd August through PASSAGE Festival.
The programme had segments especially for children, for the entire family and for mostly adults.
