THE SIBIU CREATIVE LABORATORY CALL FOR REGISTRATION WORKSHOP 09 – 18 June 2017 “SIMPLICITY IS VERY SOPHISTICATED”

The city of Sibiu (Romania) is preparing to start work on building a new theatre for the community, and it is an excellent opportunity to also think about the future of theatre and the arts in the ever-changing world.

In an effort to bring young creative minds from around the world to Sibiu during this exciting time, Sibiu International Theatre Festival will be launching a research laboratory to create a knowledge platform where ideas, thoughts and hypothesis flow freely and lead to more questions, new solutions and challenging of status quo - be it in new technologies, new forms of theatre, new ways of engaging with audiences etc.
The laboratory will kick off during the Sibiu International Theatre Festival (June 9-18, 2017) with a workshop “Simplicity is Very Sophisticated” facilitated by the scenographer Jean-Guy Lecat in English. While giving an opportunity to participants to work on specific creative challenges, this workshop will allow to take off the ground an important programming component of the future new theatre – THE SIBIU CREATIVE LABORATORY.
The participants of the workshop will work on ideas and solutions focused on transforming two existing spaces in Sibiu into performance venues. One, a former communist factory, is already being used by the festival every now and then and could develop further into an interesting and flexible open space with a capacity to accommodate non-conventional, highly transformative technically shows. The other is an abandoned space owned by the Lucian Blaga University Sibiu that could be utilized by the students and faculty of the Letters and Theatre Department.
At the end of the workshop session the participants will present their projects and the best idea will be awarded with a prize of 1000 euro.
THE SIBIU CREATIVE LABORATORY will also start publishing a series of affordable books/e-books for students and young professionals based on the results of the LABORATORY’S projects. (DESCRIPTION)
