From September 24th to October 6th, 2024, FRAGILE – the International Festival for Young DanceMusicTheatre, will be held in Wuppertal for the second time. The festival will take place in the Schauspielhaus and future Pina Bausch Centre, and will explore climate-neutral forms of production and new aesthetics for ecological sustainability.
The Pina Bausch Centre are searching for seven exciting productions with concepts for sustainable DanceMusicTheatre performances, especially those involving young people on stage and in the production process, and questioning how the production phases incorporate social, ecological and economic concerns.
National and international initiatives, producers and artists are invited to present their productions. Networked, collaborative and proactive: How can the stage become a field of experimentation on the topic of sustainability? What unique power does dance possess in cultivating global empathy? Can we organize international productions more sustainably?
Ideally, participating productions will be tandems of art and ecology or climate initiatives, and have involved young people in different stages of the production process. The Pina Bausch Centre are looking for productions that reach a young audience and people of all generations, indoors or outdoors.
Travel and transportation costs, accommodation, fees, per diems and technical support will be covered.
Applications may be submitted in English or German. Decisions will be made by a panel of experts by May 31st, 2024.
