CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS: Pitch At The PuSh Assembly (Canada)

The PuSh Assembly, Feb 1 – 6, 2011
www.pushfestival.ca

The PuSh Assembly is calling for submissions from Canadian and International projects in all performing arts disciplines.

The PuSh Assembly Pitch Session gives artists and producers a fabulous opportunity to make their ideas become a reality: the flash point from where tours are booked, commissions are dreamed up, residencies secured and relationships struck. Artists, agents, and producers are given the opportunity to raise awareness about works on tour and projects currently in development to an audience of international presenters and programmers. A combination of an entrepreneurial ‘pitch’ and an aesthetic dialogue, the PuSh Assembly pitch sessions have already resulted in several new collaborations in theatre, dance, multi-disciplinary creations and hybrid performance projects.

The PuSh Assembly is a performing arts industry initiative directly linked to the PuSh International Performing Arts Festival offering global networking opportunities through its specialized programming for the Canadian performing arts. The PuSh Assembly is the West Coast’s only annual international multi-disciplinary marketplace for the performing arts.

How to submit?
• Go to www.pushfestival.ca
• Click on the link to download and complete the Pitch Session application form
• Send in your completed pitch submission (along with a non-refundable
processing fee of $35) before Friday, October 29th, 2010
