Arts Discipline

Multidisciplinary (visual and stage arts, small scale musical and literary art forms...)

Target Candidate

This open call is aimed at creators aged 18 and over to support individual or collective arts initiatives in a diversity of disciplines such as stage and dramatic arts, dance and small scale musicals. This includes projects in non-conventional venues and short-length shows, whether amateur or semi-professional, aimed at both an adult and family audience.

Length of Residency

Three months

Conditions

3 months rehearsal in the Civic Centre’s available spaces.
Show premiere at the Civic Centre.

Technical support during the process and final performance.
Dissemination of the show through the usual channel of the Civic Centre (flyers, internet, posters...).

All companies submitting applications to the open call must commit to carrying out their project and premiering it under the same conditions in which it has been submitted. If this is not the case or if the project is not completed on time, the company or group will have to compensate the Cultural Centre for the rehearsals carried out and the failure to honour their commitments.

The Civic Centre’s programme scheduling team will make contact by email with the individuals, groups and companies that have applied to take part in the ACTUA.
