29-02-2012

Artists in the field of dance, theatre and music have until 10 March to make submissions for performances to be featured at the Between the Seas Festival of Mediterranean Performing Arts in New York, an event supported by the EU-funded Anna Lindh Foundation.
 
The 2nd edition of the festival, organised by Les Manouches Theatre Company, will be featuring a variety of themes under the following categories:
 
•       ‘Mediterranean identity’ featuring works that explore or are inspired by life, identities and histories in or across Mediterranean societies,
•       ‘Living in-between’ featuring works exploring or inspired by diaspora Mediterranean identities,
•       ‘Contemporary works and adaptations’ which features performances of existing and new works by contemporary Mediterranean playwrights/ choreographers/ composers. Adaptations or new interpretations of the classics in ways that highlight contemporary Mediterranean realities or explore new aesthetic, techniques and interpretive models emerging in the region are welcome.
 
The festival takes place from 20 August to 26 August 2012 at the Wild Project theatre in the heart of the East Village in New York.
