What is FEATS?
FEATS is the annual Festival of Anglophone Theatrical Societies. This brings together English-speaking theatre groups from mainland Europe to take part in a four-day festival, comprising four evenings of competing one-act plays, and a fringe of other theatrical performances, workshops or other cultural events.

On the final day, these assessments form the basis for a range of awards for different aspects of the play and its staging – and on the extent to which the plays have adhered to the competition rules.
