Oxford Playhouse and Pulse Festival opportunities

Hi all

Thanks to Claire Symonds at the Lowry, here are two opportunities which may be of interest!

ps - hoping to see you at Stacy Makishi on Friday!


Oxford Playhouse Evolve Scheme – closes 2nd December

 

Applicatons are now open for the second year of Oxford Playhouse’s Artists in Residence scheme, Evolve, which aims to support emerging practitioners or mid-career artists who want to find time and space to grow their work, their organisation or their practice. The three appointed individual artists or companies will receive structured support and access to the theatre’s resources for a year, and hopefully go on to become longer-term associates of the Playhouse following in the footsteps of Flintlock Theatre, Caroline Horton and Eileen Havard. Find out more.

 

Pulse Festival Applications– closes 10th January

 

PULSE Festival is a part curated/part open application 10 day festival focusing on new and innovative approaches, offering a bright and inspiring snapshot of contemporary theatre and performance to both theatregoers and a delegation of programmers from around the country. The 2014 PULSE Festival will present work across a variety of genres, from comedy to dance and everything in between, in various forms from tour-ready work to rehearsed readings, and works at an advanced stage of development. Now in its 14th year, PULSE Festival has presented new work from a host of local and international artists and companies including Gecko, Talking Birds, Lucy Ellinson, Made in China, Caroline Horton, Victoria Melody, Chris Goode, Mark Thomas, Daniel Bye, Chris Thorpe, Action Hero and Ursula Martinez.
