Open call - PUSH Lab 1: Gender and sexual identity

The lab brings together 14 performing artists from five different European countries to explore gender and sexual identity in theater and dance for children and young people. The artists will live and work together for 8 days, from Monday January 30, through Monday February 6, 2017. Application deadline: Wednesday October 5, 2016.

How can we as artists use our current skills and push ourselves and the sector to create bold and radical work for children? How can we match our personal politic with the work we create and the ways we engage with young people?
