In June 2020 Theatre Epicentre is going to organise the 3rd Croatian TYA and Puppet Theatre Showcase. The Showcase is going to take place between June, 1st – 6th 2020, in four or five Croatian cities, including Zagreb. The call for performances is going to be announced by the end of January. The jury formed by the professionals: Miran Hajos (president of Theatre Epicentre), Romano Bogdan (president of Assitej Croatia), Jasminka Mesaric (president of UNIMA Croatia), Iris Pavic – Tumpa and Leo Vukelic (Theatre Epicentre’s EC members), is going to choose between 10 to 12 best of Croatian TYA and Puppet performances.
Following the successful 2nd year’s edition, the Showcase is going to be organised as a tour connecting the most important Croatian theatre centres. The main goal of the Showcase is to present Croatian TYA and Puppet theatre productions to international producers and managers. Such an approach, which implies a direct contact between international managers and Croatian theatre makers, is the most efficient way for cultural exchange and promotion of Croatian art, culture and tourism.
Theatre Epicentre has opened a call for participation at the 3rd Croatian TYA and Puppet Theatre Showcase. Interested participants are invited to send their applications containing contact informations and a short CV by February, 28th. The organiser is covering costs of local transportation, accomodation and meals; the participants are in charge for covering traveling costs to and from Croatia.
Croatian TYA and Puppet Showcase offers the real Croatian experience – a full-time company of the most prominent Croatian TYA and Puppet theatre makers, a tour through well-known, but also unknown Croatian regions, and the best of TYA and Puppet theatre.
