Deadline: Sunday 6 September 2009
Contacting the World is a biennial international performance project developed by Contact Theatre in Manchester, one of the UK’s leading organisations creating work by and for young people. They now seek expressions of interest from young performance companies to participate in this pioneering, intercultural project. Contacting the World aims to increase the skills, understanding and experience of young people from around the world in a unique theatre project, facilitated by the internet.
Twelve theatre companies from Europe and overseas will be twinned to work collaboratively over a seven month period, devising twelve new productions which will be premiered together in the UK during July 2010. Applications to participate are currently being invited from young theatre makers, emerging artists, youth theatres and other organisations creating theatre with young people.
