Flare Festival

Any students involved in the creation of a high quality piece of ‘radical’ theatre, that tests accepted ideas of the nature of theatrical experience could see their work at the Flare International Festival of New Theatre 2015, alongside the Manchester International Festival.

Selected participants spend a week in central Manchester performing, watching other radical new theatre selected internationally, meeting other makers from across Europe and beyond and taking part in workshops, discussions, meals and parties.

Current or graduating students can apply, proposing pieces between 10 and 45 minutes long, and artist-directed student projects are also eligible. Priority may be given to group projects over solo work, to ensure the maximum number of students benefit.
