Over the course of three years (2014 - 2017) one a week, Panic Button Theatre, represented by Vasilena Radeva and Bogdana Kotareva lead a theatre class with patients of the City Psychiatric Clinic, in Sofia, Bulgaria. The participants also attended a performance at Theatre Sofia once a month. The creative meetings between the artists and patients lead to the culmination of a sharing, for an invited audience, of three Bulgarian texts: Don’t Loose Heart, by St. Stratiev; Tourists, by Chudomir; and Antonio and Claudia, by Georgi Angelov. The theatrical meetings were filmed and made into a documentary film called - One Hour Theatre, written and directed by Petia Ivanova.
