Description

As part of a commitment to the support of new work and emerging practice, Au Brana offers an annual residence for two companies in its studio spaces with dormitory accommodation provided, for ten days. Applications are welcome from any individual, company, collective or group of artists (maximum 5 people) from any performance discipline with a focus on collaboration and new research. This can take the form of:

  • Practical research of a new training or performance approach
  • An exchange of practice between different groups or individuals
  • Cross-disciplinary encounters or hybrid artistic approaches
  • A first meeting between collaborators

Please note that rehearsals or reworking of an existing performance will not be considered nor can you use this residency for financial gain (eg a public paid workshop).

Outcome

You will be required to share your work in some form with the local public at the end of the residency.
