Cultivate 2013

Cultivate 2013

Presented by Force Majeure in association with Carriageworks and Performance Space

Force Majeure invites applications to Cultivate, our second annual dance theatre laboratory, taking place 15 July – 2 August 2013.
Cultivate is a unique lab-style workshop that will give choreographers, directors, dancers and physical performers/actors direct experience of the methodologies employed by Force Majeure to create new work. The lab will be led by Kate Champion, Artistic Director of Force Majeure and Byron Perry, Associate Director of Force Majeure.
Cultivate aims not to teach, but rather to stimulate participants into thoroughly investigating their own concepts and the possible directions that their practice can take.
Participants will work within a supportive environment where they will be encouraged
to take risks with their own creative vision and where they will receive articulate and constructive feedback.
We welcome your application if you:

  • Are a dancer, actor or physical-theatre performer who is highly skilled and has
    an interest in the devising process of dance theatre

We are particularly looking for artists from diverse cultural background.
Applications from inter-state artists will be considered.
7 Performers will be chosen.
