Summary/Abstract: The current situation of the Roma community in Europe is more eclectic and complicated than ever. Majority attitudes have not changed decisively in recent decades, becoming a less important issue in contrast to the crises of immigration from Africa and the Middle East. The werkgruppe2 company from Hannover, together with the State Theatre of Braunschweig, the Théâtre de la Manufacture in Nancy and the “Mihai Eminescu” National Theatre in Timisoara, proposes an incursion into the current world of the Roma community through a social theatre performance. This article is a cold analysis of the experience of this project and a moral inventory of its impact.
