Download The Contemporary Performance Almanac 2020

We have launched the 6th annual edition of the Contemporary Performance
Almanac. We hope that this Almanac—as an extension of the Network—can aid discovery, spark curiosity, and facilitate exchange.

The Contemporary Performance Network is a social network and community organizing platform providing artists, presenters, scholars and festivals a space to meet, share work, and collaborate. The term contemporary performance is used to describe hybrid performance works and artists that travel between the fields of experimental theatre & dance, video art, visual art, music composition and performance art without adhering to one specific field’s practice. The Network was founded in 2010 and has grown to 7600 artists, presenters, curators, foundations, scholars and publishers from 85 countries worldwide

We’re continually excited to see the breadth of disciplines practiced by the participants and the global scope of the contributions. Inside the pages of this Almanac are the artworks described by the artists in their own words: eloquent, challenging, provocative and urgent. Enjoy.
