TOP (Teatri Off Padova)

TOP Teatri Off Padova is a social enterprise cooperative. Firmly embracing a vision of culture as a “driver of development” and as a tool for social promotion and improved quality of life, TOP designs and promotes innovative projects for the local community. It presents performances and festivals, training programs for children, youth and adults, as well as for companies and specific target groups, and tailor-made projects for schools. Since its foundation, TOP has provided services to businesses through training courses, performances and corporate heritage storytelling practices.
With the Museum Alive project, now a distinctive brand of the cooperative, TOP enhances historical, artistic and cultural heritage through original performances created with digital tools and through workshops for young people and adults aimed at audience development. The cooperative is based at Teatro S. Clemente, a former church regenerated through synergy with stakeholders in the Padua Industrial Area.
