Scenekunstbruket in collaboration with Kulturtanken and Markedet for scenekunst organizes an introductory seminar for 8 newly established performing artists with children and young people as the main target group at Markedet for scenekunst 29-31 August 2023. 

We're looking forward to meeting the artists and seeing a wide range of performances during the Market together. There will be daily professional replenishment with introductions on topics such as how the selection of performing arts proposals for the Cultural Rucksack takes place and what quality assessments are made when selecting performances for the Market for Performing Arts. Kulturtanken will talk about the practical process of applying for DKS, and we at Scenekunstbruket will talk about our assessment practices and how we work in our artistic council. 

The eight performing artists participating in the seminar are:

  • Jawad Aziz - the slam poet graduated from Nordic Black Theatre
  • Shelmith Øseth - dancer trained at Skolan för Samtidsdans
  • Peter Kolbjørnsen - actor educated from Nord University and Kristiania University College/Westerdals 
  • Lisa Teige - dancer trained from Khio
