We are looking for dance artists and companies, emerging or established, to perform either a work in progress or a newly finished piece of work.

On 22nd November 2012, the beautiful Circomedia space, in Portland Square, will be hosting Testing Ground, the fourth exciting performance platform for dance work to be held there. We are very happy to say that Testing Ground will be taken forward by Arnolfini in 2013.    

 

For this event, we are looking for up to 6 pieces of dance/dance-theatre work that are between 5 and 15 minutes in duration.   

 All performers will have the opportunity to receive feedback on their work. This will be through a question and answer session with the audience and then a retrospective discussion with the Testing Ground team including Theatre Bristol and other arts professionals. 　 

 We aim for the platform to be highly supportive and nurturing for the artists involved, and an interactive opportunity for audiences, offering an insight into new work. Whatever stage of development your work is at, we are interested to hear from you.  To register you interest please email janwinter@circomedia.com and tell us about yourself. Please include:    

 

• A brief description of your work and an indication of its length. Include pictures and/or video links if necessary.   
• An outline technical specification with your statement. Please bear in mind that while we aim to be as supportive as possible, all tech set up and testing has to take place for all companies on the day, so the simpler the better!  

Works will be selected on the basis of ensuring a diverse and engaging programme.  The deadline for submission is Monday 15th October by 5.00pm, and successful performers/companies will be informed by Friday 26th October

 We look forward to hearing from you. 

 

This event is being supported by Theatre Bristol and Circomedia.
