WANT
TO PERFORM IN THE FESTIVAL?
The
Mime Festival presents innovative visual theatre. Participation
is by invitation only.
To
let us know about your work, please send a VHS video (PAL or NTSC)
to:
Helen Lannaghan & Joseph Seelig London International Mime Festival
35 Little Russell Street London WC1A 2HH
If you would like your video returned to you, please enclose a
pre-paid postage envelope with your video.
If
we think what we see on the video looks appropriate for the festival,
we will then try to come and see the work live somewhere.
We
are looking for professional, non text-based work, which can include
animation theatre, circus skills, mask, mime, clown and visual
theatre. Ideally, the work should not have been performed in London
before. Please note that we do not programme pure 'dance' and
there are no outdoor performances.
The
2004 festival will take place from 10-25 January 2004. Submissions
should reach us by mid-July 2003, but ideally in the period May-June.
