This message that we call the international message, is translated into around twenty languages. He is read in front of tens of thousands of spectators before the performance of the evening in theaters around the world, printed in hundreds of daily newspapers and broadcast by radio and television on 5 continents. Jean Cocteau was the author of the first international message in 1962.

The theater brings together and World Theater Day is the celebration of this desire. This is an opportunity for the artists of the scene to share with their audience a certain vision of their art and the way in which this art can contribute to understanding and peace between peoples.

To the worldwide dissemination of the international message are added many events from the almost intimate demonstration until the great popular celebration.
