SUPERNOVA 2020
The “SUPERNOVA” 2020 call for proposals is online: a call dedicated to performing arts productions (theater, dance and / or interdisciplinary projects) that are designed for a theater / closed space.
Supernova aims at supporting shows and performances that investigate contemporary issues through original dramaturgies and new scenic languages. Supernova pays particular attention to shows dedicated to research and theatrical experimentation. Supernova is an invitation to investigate new perspectives. Supernova is aimed at artists (individuals, companies or collectives) who operate in Italy in the field of theater, dance and performing arts.
The selected shows / performances will be hosted during the 45th edition of the Pergine Festival, in the period between 3 and 18 July 2020, within the Ex Rimessa Carrozze space. Considering the peculiarities of the space, the artists / companies will have to adapt their show to the technical requirements of the former Rimessa Carrozze , the historic venue of the festival (tech sheet). The shows / performances will be evaluated by the artistic direction of the festival: only the selected artists will be contacted personally by 10 January 2020.
