La Poste Theater Productions

In 2006, the Cantonal Department of Culture launched the "TheaterPro-VS" project. The aim of ThéâtrePro-VS is to promote and develop professional theater in Valais. It is the result of a partnership between the Department of Education, Culture and Sport and Loterie Romande. ThéâtrePro-VS is based on a formally regulated partnership between theaters that have been awarded the "Valais Professional Theater" label and established theater groups. In 2006, the La Poste Theatre was awarded the "Valais Professional Theatre" label, giving artists from the Valais the opportunity to produce professional projects in their home region and to realize their performances and distribution. This is linked to the professionalization of the various theater professions and the creation of job opportunities for directors, actors, set and costume designers, technicians, etc. At the same time, professional theater creation is intended to sensitize the local audience to the various stage arts.

Professional theater professionals can submit their theater projects directly to the La Poste Culture and Congress Center until the beginning of August in accordance with the criteria of "TheaterPro-VS". The requirements and regulations to be observed can be found on the website of the Department of Culture of the Canton of Valais at www.vs.ch.
