Emphasis, Imagery, Ideas, Principles
We are always open for other performers or groups wanting to collaborate as artist(s) in residence or within our yearly in-house production.
Our emphasis is on Performance as a staged production. However, Live-Art, Visual Art or other innovative forms of presentations such as installations, exhibitions, action poetry or concerts are also welcome.
The curatorial choice of our Program emphasises solely artistic quality and innovation. The productions are focused on authentic community issues and current trends.
