Theatre Sandbox
Theatre Sandbox, a new opportunity for theatre artists, companies and collectives, is offering six £10,000 commissions to support the research and development of experimental pieces of performance which engage with Pervasive Media Technologies.
What are we looking for?
Theatre Sandbox is for people who have already dabbled with digital technology and those who are completely new to it – it is a great opportunity to experiment, explore and take risks within a supported space. We are looking for great creative ideas and people who get excited about treading new ground and sharing their learning with others.
Setting out to grow an active community experimentation and learning, the scheme includes a structured programme of commissioning, mentoring, work in progress performances, knowledge exchange and PR/promotion.
Technology is an enabler: it's only as exciting as the story it is telling or the experience it is helping to create. Being part of the scheme offers access to technology experts, leading theatre professionals and the chance to work with one of our venue partners: Bristol Old Vic; mac, Birmingham; Contact, Manchester; The Junction, Cambridge; Soho Theatre, London; and Lyric, Hammersmith.
Applications will be accepted until 30 April and the scheme will run from July – September 2010: To keep up to date with information as it is announced (including booking info for the workshops) join the mailing list and follow us on Twitter.
