From 1997 to 2003 Pan Pan produced the Dublin International Theatre Symposium, a unique and dynamic programme of talks, workshops, demonstration-performances and full productions.

The Symposium gave an Irish audience the chance to engage with a variety of styles, approaches and viewpoints in contemporary theatre from Europe and further afield, allowing space for discussion and engagement with the theatre artists through the workshop and talks programmes and through the demonstration-performances, giving an insight into the varied creation processes.
