📍 Where? Tartu Üliõpilasmaja / Tartu public space
📝 Apply: send us a short free-form note about your experience in the performing arts and why you're interested → kellyestoni@gmail.com · 5303 8295 Under-18s need written parental consent. Applications until 20 September.
Only 12–15 spots – let us know! 🙌
The creation of the production is supported by the Integration Foundation (Integratsiooni Sihtasutus).
Are you 14–18 and living in Tartu or nearby? Have you tried acting, singing, dancing, puppetry or another performing art? Come create a performance the whole city will see!
In October you'll be guided by internationally acclaimed Belgian director and choreographer Jordi L. Vidal (40+ productions and 600+ performances worldwide). Together with young people of Estonian, Ukrainian, Russian and other backgrounds, you'll create the physical theatre piece "The Crossing" – a story about crossing borders, meeting one another and belonging.
✨ What we're looking for:
• age 14–18
• prior (even a little) experience in the performing arts – acting, singing, dancing, puppetry, etc.
• a wish to try something new
• openness to work with peers from different cultures
💡 Why join?
• it's FREE
• you don't need to speak Estonian well – physical theatre speaks through the body and emotions
• the performance takes place at the small international theatre festival A-festival – you'll meet performing artists from different European countries!
• you'll perform in front of a real audience and make new friends across cultures
