Hotel Europa is a company formed by André Amálio (Portugal) and Tereza Havlíčková (Czech Republic).
They have been developing documentary theatre performances that explore the boundaries between theatre, dance and performance. They use in their work an overlap of autobiographical material, family stories, national histories, testimonies, interviews and historiographical research. They deal with unaddressed issues of the recent past such as Colonialism, Fascism and Communism trying to make a bridge between the past and present. In their performances they are also discussing recent matters such as migration, environmental problems and gentrification.
The work of Hotel Europa has been performed in Portugal, Brazil, France, Germany, Spain, Czech Republic and Slovakia.
