*BE FESTIVAL 2014 - Call for artists*

Every summer, BE FESTIVAL brings together the most daring and original
theatre from across Europe. The festival's mission is to cross borders, so
we look for work that can inspire people of all nationalities, and which
crosses borders between artistic disciplines.
The Festival will take place between July 8-12 in Birmingham UK.

Companies from across Europe can apply to perform at BE FESTIVAL. You can
apply either with a finished show or with a piece that is still in
development. Performances at BE can be no longer than 30 minutes, so some
pieces may need to be adapted. The ethos of the festival is to cross
borders, so we will programme work that crosses borders (linguistic,
cultural, artistic) and which inspires people of all nationalities.

BE FESTIVAL is a powerful showcase opportunity as performances are watched
by national and international programmers. Companies who performed at BE
have since been programmed at London International Mime Festival, The
Barbican, South Bank Centre, The Lowry, Leeds Carriageworks, Bilbao ACT
Festival, Rome Short Theatre Festival and Sarajevo MESS Festival to name a
few.

Furthermore, it’s an opportunity to explore ideas and build new
collaborations with performers from across Europe. Selected companies will
be provided with accommodation, meals, transport in Birmingham, and will
get free access to world-class workshops, feedback, discussions and
opportunities for professional development.


*Conditions*- Performances at the festival can be no longer than 30
minutes, so you may need to shorten your piece.
- the organizers programme finished pieces and work that is still in
development.

Selected companies will be provided with accommodation, meals, transport in
Birmingham, and will get access to world-class workshops, feedback,
discussions and opportunities for professional development.

The organizers do not pay a fee or fund all travel costs to Birmingham, but
can advise you in finding funding.


*Awards *A jury of theatre and dance professionals awards 5 main prizes at
BE FESTIVAL:
- one Development Prize: £1500 and a funded residency to develop your work
and perform it at BE FESTIVAL the following year;
- the ACT Festival Prize: a funded performance in Bilbao;
- three UK Touring prizes: a funded, paid tour of 18 venues across the UK
in Autumn.
