A Turma is currently looking for a playwright or a theatre maker, for the development of an artist residency with the duration of two months (consecutively), in Porto, Portugal.
Applications are accepted from playwrights, performers or visual artists as the project is related with the research for a new dramaturgy or theatrical creation. At the end of the residency period there must be an informal presentation of the developed work. A Turma also invites the artist to develop a workshop for local young actors and/or theatre makers to share and exchange the methodologies of the work.
The initiative In Residence, in partnership with Porto City Council, aims to bring national and international artists closer to opportunities to develop residence projects in the city in multiple artistic fields.
Support includes the fees of 5,000 EUR (for European artists) or 6,000 EUR (for Intercontinental artists). This grant is managed by A Turma in cooperation with the artist(s) and includes: artist’s payment, travel, creation materials, technical support and other logistic expenses. This grant is aimed at individual artists or companies, although the accommodation provided is a one-bedroom apartment.
