Industry Event: New Authors Sharings

Come see new circus work in the making!

As part of Circus City’s New Authors micro-commission programme, three micro-commissioned artists Jade England–Johns, Natalie Reckert and Jean-Daniel Broussé, each received £2,000, studio time and producer support to begin developing bold new circus ideas.

At this artist focused event, the New Authors will share their research and pitch their projects to peers, programmers, producers, and potential partners. The session is designed to spark conversation, share early practice, invite creative input and create opportunities for future collaboration and touring.

We invite colleagues from across the sector to join us in supporting these emerging voices and to connect with these new projects at this pivotal early stage.
