With ‘…enough // …dosta!’ the 25th Faki Festival of Alternative Theatrical Expression (running 23-29 May 2022) enacts the theme of resource distribution and allocation, increasingly defining the limits of life – often by categories that are unclear, automated, outside of our control, or nonsense. With …enough!, they propose a platform where artists are free to express their own limits, to define their own resources and fantastic ambitions.
Faki Festival invites proposals for theatre plays, circus, dance, installation, street performance, puppetry, workshops, or totally new forms of expression. They are also open to video performance works, or theatrical proposals that innovate with digital forms. Short (one-week) residency proposals for development are also invited. The festival creates space, time, and capacity with artists, acknowledging a situation of ‘not enough’ art, artists, exchange, and art situations for free performance.
…enough! is both a demand and a refusal – a refusal to reproduce scarcity ad nauseum, and a demand that there is often more than enough available!
FAKI Festival normally covers all reasonable costs for the presentation of accepted works, which may include:
- Limited technical direction and adaptation.
- Subsistence – normally meaning basic accommodation on-site at Medika, and healthy vegan lunches.
- Travel costs are covered up to 200€ for individuals and 500€ for groups, with sustainable transport options (bus, train, shared car) preferred.
- Artists additionally receive coverage and promotion by the festival, rehearsal space, and dramaturgy or other support from the directors if needed.
