Scratch
In 2011, La Boite Theatre Company has offered five performance artists the wonderful opportunity to Scratch the surface.
Overview
It can be very tough for young theatre and performance makers to get a break into the industry. Finding an opportunity to test, experiment and explore the process of making work is essential to their development – but these opportunities are hard to find.
Once again the wonderful La Boite has the answer with the Scratch program. In 2011 Scratch has offered five performance artists the wonderful opportunity to scratch the surface, to test their work and to see what happens.
The lucky participants are playwright David Burton; performance educator and director Emma Che Martin; contemporary performance-maker and producer Genevieve Trace; performance-maker Sarah Winter; and dancer and choreographer Liesel Zink. They have each been given two opportunities in 2011 to scratch the surface, testing their work in front of audiences in a low-tech context to get audience feedback on their work and they need you.
You can be part of the next wave of performance making: viewing cutting edge, fresh work and offering your insights into how to improve and change these new performances. There are three more opportunities this year, and tickets are only $10, so get on down to La Boite and be part of the process in making great performance in Brisbane.
